Lars Tunbjörk Work from The Office. “Tunbjörk’s images observe the sterile interiors of nameless business offices that, though different in name, share a lexicon of commercial iconography: neon lights, industrial ventilation systems, thin metal framed windows, computers, filing cabinets, and—most pronouncedly—white and grey cubicles. The series remains firmly grounded in this commercial world with little […]

Niels Stomps Work from Fire and Snow. “Svalbard, Spitsbergen’s location at 78 degrees north latitude makes it the world’s northernmost permanently inhabited settlement. The island is literally cut off from the rest of the world by sea or ice. The rhythm of nature is so dominant that the only recourse is to adapt. Svalbard’s inhabitants […]

Miriam Steinhauser Work from On the Prowl. “Throughout history, art has served society’s rich and powerful individuals and institutions, helping to raise their public profile as has been the case with the church, the royalty and the bourgeoisie upper class.

Viviane Sassen Work from Ultraviolet. Sassen’s work is on view at Danziger Projects until April 10th. “In this work she has established a visual vocabulary that is stylized, symbolic and mysterious.

Qiu Yang Work from his oeuvre. While not indicative of all of the images here (really just the bottom one), the statement below gives you a peek into Yang’s process. “This work is a visual study of the iconographic value of certain objects and items, which would repeatedly appear in Playboy centerfolds between the years […]

Jaap Scheeren Work from his oeuvre. I also recommend the process-related work fake flowers in full colour. “well.. nijmegen raised, after breda and rotterdam, now amsterdam based.

Mark Boellaard Work from Collage. I received an email from Mark this morning with this work, enjoy. “By juxtaposing elements from a wide and unusual range of resources I attempt to create original works that invoke a sense of shock, wonder and delight upon the spectator.

Martijn Henkriks
Sunday, 20 December 2009
Martijn Hendriks Work from his oeuvre. There is a good interview here. “Martijn Hendriks’s videos, sculptures, and installations often involve seemingly unproductive gestures.
