A CERTAIN MESS - de Brakke Grond

EXPOSITIE: A CERTAIN MESS
Ang, Gilissen, Konrad, Lindhout

ZA 08 T/M ZO 30.03.08

Vier kunstenaars presenteren hun werk in een tentoonstelling die beschouwd kan worden als een beeldende component van het symposium over masteropleidingen in Fine Art, dat op 8 maart in de Brakke Grond in Amsterdam werd gehouden.

Vanuit de samenwerking tussen de masters-opleidingen van de Hogeschool voor de Kunsten Utrecht en de Hogeschool Sint-Lukas te Brussel komen twee aan deze instituten verbonden docenten en twee (voormalige) studenten in deze tentoonstelling samen om onder andere de terminologie van het ‘mastership’ aan de orde te stellen. Zonder een kritische blik op het educatieve systeem los te laten, verkiezen de kunstenaars recent werk te tonen dat zich vanuit zijn autonomie verhoudt tot het werk van de anderen en het heersende discours omtrent de kunstvakopleidingen.

Joris Lindhout (Utrecht, 1981) beschouwt zijn nog jonge praktijk als een zich continuerend parcours van communicatie en kennisverwerving dat zich o.a. vertaalt in het bijeenbrengen van leesgroepen waarbinnen hij zich opstelt als organisator, moderator én deelnemer. Deze diversiteit aan rollen levert materiaal op waarmee een soort pamfletten worden gemaakt die een symbiose vormen tussen woord en beeld.

Filip Gilissen (Brussel, 1980) toont 'The Politics Of Success', een installatie waarbinnen een 6 minuten durende teaser uit het oeuvre van succes coach Brian Tracey wordt gescreend. Deze videoles of peptalk afkomstig van YouTube, in combinatie met de symposium simulatie, wensen een gevoel van vooruitgang in denken en visuele cultuur te bevragen.

Tiong Ang (Surabaya, 1961) laat in een samenstelling van posters, schilderijen en video’s een uiteenzetting zien van zijn hybride praktijk waarbinnen een solitaire, vanuit een modernistische traditie werkende atelierkunstenaar kan samensmelten met de mobiliteit van interdisciplinariteit, samenwerking en bevraging van de nieuwe media.

Aglaia Konrad (Salzburg, 1960) toont haar nieuwe 16mm film ‘sculpture house’ waarin architectuur en sculptuur in elkaar overvloeien. Het geluidswerk ‘conversaties’ laat verschillende posities rond architectuur en beeldhouwkunst aan het woord.


TEXT IN ENGLISH:

Four artists present their work in an exhibition that may be regarded as the visual component of the symposium on Master courses in Fine Art which was held in Brakke Grond, Amsterdam on 8 March.

As a result of the collaboration between the Masters courses at the Hogeschool voor de Kunsten in Utrecht and the Hogeschool Sint-Lukas in Brussels, two of their staff members and two former students meet at the exhibition in order to discuss, among other things, the terminology of ‘mastership’. Without abandoning their critical view of the educational system, the artists have chosen to display recent work which, while being autonomous, relates to the work of the others and the present discourse around professional training in the arts.

Joris Lindhout (Utrecht, 1981) regards his budding practice as a self-continuing track of communication and acquisition of expertise which manifests itself in the bringing together of reading groups in which he acts as organiser and moderator as well as a participant. This diversity of roles gives rise to pamphlets that are a symbiosis of text and image.

Filip Gilissen (Brussels, 1980) Throughout the show
A Certain Mess, a 6 minute teaser on creativity selected from the oeuvre of business success trainer Brian Tracey, will be looped or screened in a simulated symposium setup. The video lesson or pep talk is accompanied of melodic in- and outro from The Success Training Channel - announcing Brian's coming but also referring to a web presence (TSTN.COM) where more of this success footage can be consulted. The installation wishes to focus a displaced audience on Tracey's definition of creativity and questions a certain sense of progress in thinking and visual culture.

Tiong Ang (Surabaya, 1961) displays, in a combination of posters, paintings and videos, a sample card of his hybrid practice within which a solitary studio artist, working from a modernistic tradition, can amalgamate with the communicative agency of interdisciplinarity, collaboration and questioning of the new media.
Aglaia Konrad (Salzburg, 1960) shows her new 16mm film ‘Sculpture House’ in which architecture and sculpture merge. De- and re-constructions of fragmentation, contradictions and cinematographic staging are some of the methods with which she allows us to share her perception of urban public space in installations.

Territorial Phantom
Opening 28 maart om 17.00 uur
Tentoonstelling 29 maart -12 mei

Met werk van: AES+F Group, Yael Bartana, Cao Fei, Yolande Harris, Marine Hugonnier, Karen Lancel, Lucas Lenglet, Raqs Media Collective, State of Sabotage, Artur Zmijewski.

Met een mix aan attitudes, opvattingen en vormen reageren de kunstenaars in Territorial Phantom op het innemen en bezetten van ruimte. In de huidige claim- en bezettingscultuur eigenen organisaties, bedrijven en landen zichzelf steeds meer ruimte toe door openbare ruimte te privatiseren of landen te 'democratiseren' en waar nodig tegenstanders onschadelijk te maken. Tijdens de opening van 'Territorial Phantom' en op zaterdag 29 maart kun je een paspoort laten maken en hiermee inwoner worden van de 'State of Sabotage'. Deze door kunstenaars opgerichte staat is overal, of kan overal zijn: een territoriaal fantoom, een staat zonder afgebakend territorium. Hiernaast wordt gedurende de opening op drie momenten het volkslied van 'State of Sabotage' live gezongen.

Territorial Phantom
Opening March 28, 5:00 pm
Exhibition March 28 – May 12

Artists: AES+F Group, Yael Bartana, Cao Fei, Yolande Harris, Marine Hugonnier, Karen Lancel, Lucas Lenglet, Raqs Media Collective, State of Sabotage, Artur Zmijewski.

Employing a whole mix of attitudes, viewpoints and forms, the artists in Territorial Phantom respond to occupying and possessing space. In today's culture, based around claiming and possession, organizations, businesses and countries appropriate ever more space, by privatizing public space or bringing 'democracy' to countries, and where necessary eliminating opponents. During the opening of 'Territorial Phantom' and on Saturday March 29 one can have a passport made and become a resident of the 'State of Sabotage'. This state, established by artists, is everywhere, or can be everywhere: a territorial phantom, a state without delimited territory. Besides this, the anthem of 'State of Sabotage' will be performed live during the opening three times.

Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk - Salon Printemps 2008
Monumentaal keramiek en olieverfschilderijen
Expositie: 29 maart tm 17 mei 2008
Opening 29 maart 16:00-19:00 uur

Welkom in de Kunstsalon van een Dame. Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk (alias Cirque de Pepin) omringt zijn nieuwste keramiekbeeld 'De Dame en haar dwerg' door kunstwerken, schilderijen en keramiek met een hang naar nostalgie en melancholie. Aan het beeld is veertien maanden gewerkt en rond de 400 kilogram klei verwerkt.
In de werken zien we bekende- en minder bekende personages, dieren, Kardinalen en intellectuelen opdraven. De Dodo bijvoorbeeld, als Messias terugkerend op aarde om te ontdekken dat de mens zelf verdwenen is. Het Zeeuws meisje in een allegorie op het verdwijnende landschap en op de verloren onschuld. Zware onderwerpen, maar gelukkig valt er ook nog te lachen in Pepijn's kunstkabinet van een Dame: gepassioneerde Kardinalen, lelijke intellectuelen en schattige blauwe vogeltjes.

DE DAME EN HAAR DWERG
In de 16e en 17e eeuw was het erg modieus in hogere adellijke kringen om dwergen als personeel te hebben. Zo'n kleine 'personal assistant' gaf een 'groot aanzien'. Een schilderij van Rubens waarop een adellijke Veronese dame zich met haar dwerg liet portretteren inspireerde Van Den Nieuwendijk tot dit monumentale werk. Zoals veel van Van Den Nieuwendijks kunstwerken toont dit kunstwerk ons het spel van de passie, macht en het belang van goud tegenover onze zwakte, onmacht en angst.

Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk (1970) woont in Den Haag waar hij aan monumentale keramieken beelden en olieverfschilderijen werkt.
Zijn inspiratie vindt hij bij Victoriaanse kunst zoals het werk van de Symbolisten Arnold Böcklin en Viktor Vasnetsov, oude natuurhistorische boeken, Katholieke devotieprenten en het werk van The Arts and Crafts movement van William Morris. Ook is Van den Nieuwendijk een groot liefhebber van hedendaagse underground- en mainstream kunstvormen als strips, illustraties en animatiefilms.
Na de opleiding aan de Koninklijke Academie te Den Haag volgen exposities bij o.a. Showroom MAMA, De Kunsthal, Pulchri, GasUnie en diverse Beeldentuinen.

Het beeld 'De dame en haar dwerg' zal voor het eerst te zien zijn bij KochxBos Gallery te Amsterdam vanaf 29 maart 2008.

(English)
Pepijn van den Nieuwendijk (1970) lives in The Hague, The Netherlands where he works on (monumental) three-dimensional ceramic objects and oil paintings.
His inspiration largely comes from Victorian artists like the Symbolists Arnold Böcklin and Viktor Vasnetsov, Catholic devotion cards and works of the The Arts and Crafts movement of William Morris. Van den Nieuwendijk is also a great admirer of temporary underground- en mainstream art-forms such as comics, illustrations en animation movies.
After his graduation at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, The Hague he exhibited at Showroom MAMA,
De Kunsthal, Pulchri, GasUnie and several Sculpture gardens.

Unwired - Go Gallery

GO Gallery invites you for the opening show of the exhibition UNWIRED,
on Saturday March 29th, from 17.00 until 20.00 hrs.

The exhibition UNWIRED will be on display until the 12 of May 2008.

SIT (Amsterdam, 1976)
Years ago, Sit, formerly know as Freakin Sitnie, made headlines in the Amsterdam Street-Art scene with his distinct style, sharp lines and obstinate artworks. Inspired by Comic illustrators such as Simon Bisley, Sam Keith, Todd Mcfarlane and Jamie Hewlett, he perfected his own style. He was very successful in a very short time. One could admire his works everywhere, at events, in clubs, from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
But he soon realised that this was temporary and a one-way street. Sit wanted more. The Mac had taken over his canvas and the inspiration was limited to what appeared on his screen. That’s when he drew the line. Dissatisfied with our digitally manipulated and superficial society, he went back to the basics.

UNWIRED
Sit had to detoxify from bits and bytes, media, hypes, lovers, haters and colours to find the true essence of creativity again. No more digital drama, no more BS.


UNWIRED is the documented process of his everyday struggle to get unwired. The progress from feeling lost to finding purity. It not only took him a full year to transfer his new found creativity in images, but also to master all sorts of new techniques and a skills. Now he feels he finally has enough work to exhibit, which is a true representation of the new ´Sit´. All is documented in black and white. So, absorb his scratches, sketches, strokes and scrapings. Step into Sit’s world and experience that we are all sick bastards who all wear straitjackets.
So, there you are…finally, UNWIRED!!!

Also on Saturday March 29th, openings of new exhibitions at galleries from the Jordaankwartier (Jordan Art Quarter) :
Galerie George Cent, Galerie KochxBos and Galerie Buuf

Gaming Politics

"NEW YORK -- In the video game that Wafaa Bilal created, his avatar is steely-eyed and hooded, with an automatic rifle at his side, an ammunition belt around his waist, a fuse in his hand and the mien of a knightly suicide-bomber. He is the "Virtual Jihadi."

The Iraqi-born, Chicago-based artist said he adapted his game from an earlier version made by al-Qaeda's media branch to raise questions about Americans' conceptions of the enemy in Iraq.

His work was briefly exhibited Thursday night at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, N.Y. The game was projected on a giant screen so that one viewer at a time could play -- until administrators shut down the show Friday morning. The institute needed time to review the show's "origin, content and intent," said William N. Walker, a vice president."

"Hunger & Work in a Savage Tribe"

Laser 3.14 & Jimmy Rage

April 4th till April 27 2008 in ABC Treehouse Gallery

Opening Sunday April 6th: 16:00 -- 18:00

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=TdCHCtOPNdI

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

From April 4 till April 27 2008, curators Blaton & Rypson in conjunction with ABC Treehouse Gallery will organize the two man-exhibition "Hunger & Work in a Savage Tribe" of guerrilla-poet Laser 3.14 and multimedium-artist Jimmy Rage.

"Hunger & Work in a Savage Tribe"

Laser 3.14 & Jimmy Rage

Laser & Rage are artists that deal explicitly and directly with subverting pervasive messages, real and unreal, seen and unseen, in everyday living. One only has to see these obscure mantras scrawled on our walls, left right and centre. It is everywhere and nowhere.

Imagine the forgotten corners, alleyways and dark streets dragged into one space.
This is the starting point and theme of "Hunger and Work in a Savage Tribe" by Laser 3.14 and Jimmy Rage.

While Laser 3.14 bombs public spaces, often time the street, with his poetically charged messages, that go from cryptic to funny and ironic; Jimmy Rage creates multi-layered, multi-collaged works of art that can be dark and brooding, drawn or written, found objects and readymades. In short: both artists, Laser and Rage create new poetry out of the debris of our media-driven consumer environment. As Jimmy Rage says; "Listen, hunger and work in a savage tribe, is man, woman, food and sex. Movement of day to night… the growth of the industrial rubble… Jungian parables… essentially… city as jungle".

From April 4 to April 27 the ABC Treehouse Gallery will be transformed with paintings, drawings, objects and implements for fishing by Laser 3.14 & Jimmy Rage.

Kijken bij bijzondere winkels in de stad is helemaal niet erg, vandaar dat we daar iedere twee weken een filmpje van gaan maken. De aftrap vond plaats in Henxs Graffiti Shop in de Sint Antoniesbreestraat. 'Wij gaan erg persoonlijk met de gasten om'. En zo is het.

==============
Henxs Graffiti Shop in de Sint Antoniesbreestraat

For visitors to Amsterdam, the shop is adjacent to the Rembrandt House, and the paint stall is in the Waterlooplein Markets. From central station turn left-ish into the Zeedijk, walk to Nieuwemarket and the Waag. Exit on the opposite of the square into Sint Antoniesbreestraat. Its on your right, just before the locks.

http://shop.henxs.com/

Starting out in 1992 selling spraypaint on the Waterloosquare market our stall fastly became the most famous spot for buying spraypaint in Holland and far abroad. From day one we offer you the best brands (i.e MTN,Bombers Best, Belton, Molotow and Flexa) for the lowest price. We were the ones to introduce Belton and Montana to the dutch graffiti scene.
