‘Dirty Pretty Things' at Cokkie Snoei

2009-04-10T03:10:00.000-07:00

A strip club in an ugly building in the middle of an empty parking lot. A desert motel with a bloody room, something resembling a body under the swimming pool cover, and a neon sign with a flashing "o" that alternates between Motel Hello and Motel Hell. These are just a few of the sculptures in the exhibition ‘Dirty Pretty Things'.

Stella McCartney's Lucky Spot

2009-04-09T23:03:00.000-07:00

Stella McCartney created this gorgeous crystal "chandelier" installation at Belsay Castle in the UK. “Lucky Spot” was originally created by the fashion designer back in 2004 for a special exhibit at the castle, and has returned (her/him) there in a special engagement for the Easter Holidays. It’s a jewelled curtain of thousands of Swarovski crystals that hung in the shape of a horse from the ceiling in the Castle's Great Hall."

Gyz La Rivière - Yellow Pages opening 13 maart

2009-03-10T04:47:00.000-07:00

Yellow Pages

Yellow, Yellow, dirty fellow!

Van 13 maart t/m 25 april exposeert Gyz La Rivière bij MOOSE. Het is zijn tweede solo show sinds hij in 2000 de HuMobisten mede oprichtte. Onder de titel Yellow Pages laat La Rivière een serie van 28 zeefdrukken zien, waarbij de kleur geel centraal staat, gekoppeld aan de diverse filosofische discussies over het denken waar de ismes welig woelen.

Het lijkt erop dat er meer -ismes zijn dan filosofen. -Isme is een veel gebruikte aanduiding voor concepten, systemen, leefwijzen, georganiseerde activiteiten, ideologieën, artistieke stromingen en andersoortige fenomenen. Zo heb je in de tentoonstelling ismes zoals Dinosaurism, Partnerism, Urbanism, Renaissancism, Oceanographism, Monarchism, Mathematism, Cosmism, Transportism, Clonism en vele anderen.

De kleur geel is een primaire kleur, maar geel is bijvoorbeeld ook de officiële kleur van Vaticaanstad. Hoewel de kleur geel centraal staat, komt zwart –wat eerder gezien moet worden als het ontbreken van licht– ook in alle zeefdrukken voor die La Rivière speciaal voor deze tentoonstelling heeft gemaakt. De combinatie geel met zwart staat in de natuur voor gevaar. Deze combinatie zie je bijvoorbeeld bij de bij en de wesp. Ook sommige gifslangen bezitten deze kleurcombinatie.

In de 28 zeefdrukken –wat tevens een perfect getal is en het aantal dagen waarin de maan om de aarde draait– laat La Rivière vol met ironie en rebussen zijn eigen filosofie zien; zijn wereldbeeld.La Rivière’s werk gaat over onrust, leegte, verveling en verzadiging. Hij haalt zijn inspiratie uit de enorme hoeveelheden beelden, pictogrammen, logo’s en ikonen die onze waarneming bereiken door middel van de beeldcultuur. Gyz La Rivière ordent ‘tijd’ als een visuele archivaris. Door beelden te isoleren uit hun oorspronkelijke context en ze in een nieuwe, autonome, context te plaatsen, wordt La Rivière heer en meester over het door hemzelf gecreëerde universum. Hij gebruikt de beelden als schizoïde puzzelstukken voor hyper realistische installaties.

Gyz La Rivière (1976, Rotterdam) studeerde mode-vormgeving aan de Willem de Kooning Academie en studeerde in 2000 als eerste modestudent af zonder kledingcollectie. In 2002 kreeg hij de Rotterdam Maaskantprijs. Onlangs had hij een solo show bij galerie Cokkie Snoei en verscheen Jan Hart; zijn vierde boek.Opening: vrijdag 13 maart van 19:00 tot 22:00Yellow Pages is mede mogelijk gemaakt door dienst Kunst en Cultuur (Gemeente R’dam).

Rice field art in Japan

2008-08-16T07:49:00.000-07:00

I found this beautiful rice field artworks. By intermixing the purple and yellow-leafed kodaimai rice along with the green-leafed tsugaru-roman variety, imaginative farmers in rural Japan grow rice paddy artworks in their fields on a massive scale. According to Pink Tentacle, “In recent years, a growing number of local governments around Japan have started organizing rice paddy art projects as a way to attract tourists and educate people about rice farming.”
I like it:)

New work by Dan Witz

2008-08-16T05:38:00.000-07:00

In the past few years much of my neighborhood in Brooklyn has been torn down to make way for luxury housing. For better or worse it's a whole new street-scape out here. Personally, I can't say I like the new modern architecture very much, it's sterile and so arrogantly disconnected with its surroundings sometimes it seems like giant alien space ships have landed in the night. But, at the very least, there's some interesting new textures and surfaces to interact with. These are photo-based, heavily re-painted stickers, mounted on plastic and glued to the walls of the Ugly New Buildings. I hit the Lower East Side and East Village in Manhattan, and Bushwick, Dumbo, Greenpoint and Williamsburg out here in Brooklyn.

Cameron Jamie & The Melvins

2008-01-29T06:39:00.000-08:00

Last night I went and saw Jamie Cameron & The Melvins perform at the Luxor theatre in Rotterdam during the International Filmfestival. It was a really cool crowd and I laughd so so much. The Melvins played the soundtrack to the three short films which were “BB”(2000), "Spook House" (2003), about Halloween in the Detroit suburbs, and "Kranky Klaus" (2003), which explores an Austrian Christmas custom with a satanic edge. "Every year on Dec. 5 and 6, Santa Claus comes and delivers gifts to people's homes, and he's accompanied by this kind of devil, which is called the Krampus," Mr. Jamie said. "Whoever is good gets a gift, and whoever is bad gets beaten. This duality - iconic figures of good and evil can work together - fascinated me. Especially coming from America, this Puritan culture, where the Devil and Santa would never be seen in the same room." Especially this last film was fantastic. I laughed so hard, it was so funny. Really happy and went and saw it!
