The longest line of coke?

On appropriation in art


Everyday artists use, re-use, re-interpret, borrow and transform not only art by others, but actually all kind of visual information. This has been done for a very long time. Romans copied Greek sculptures. Prints were made of paintings, as archive information and even some times as advertisement. Picasso, Van Gogh, Lichtenstein, Warhol, Hirst, you name it. Everybody does it. All this at different levels and with different implications.

Often rises the question of what may or may not an artist use of the available sources. Raúl Marroquín has always placed this question on a side. He creates new associations, collections, talking to our memory and even creating new ones using all available visual information. At his exhibition For you Pleasure or Displeasure at Gallery Stevens he reinterprets the 60's gathering in one place the most dramatic events in his view.


Raf girls and boys.


Communication.

Porcelain cat walk.
Quiet (Still)
Exhibition of the Anne-Marie van Sprang's small sculptures at Museum Beelden aan Zee.
It is in all ways a fragile show, and it only attracts each visitor more to do the prohibited: to touch the 15 cm tall, thin and super white human porcelain figures.
I wonder, why is the exhibition described as "installation"?

Eye contact.

The artist Anne-Marie van Sprang.

The opening seemed to me longer than normal, especially when you don't have a chair or you have little time to visit it as it was my case. There were many more visitors than space.

Even with a chair it seemed a long wait for this gentleman.

The last suppers
All about food.
An impressive and moving exhibition of Raul Ortega Ayala at Stroom The Hague.
The presentation of The Last Supper (Het laatste avondmaal) The Hague version and other works.

Hungry? or Satisfied?

A fatty Babel's Tower.


After one week.

mmh?

Re doing the buffet at the World Trade Center. Ready.

After one week.

Art?

I wonder if the food was so good at the original restaurant. I think (nearly) every body was at the same time thinking of 9/11 as they were enjoying the food.



The work I was most impressed with at the exhibition was the menus of last meals from famous people like JFK in a very sober, traditional surrounding.

(Not) The Last Supper, after one week.

The Last Supper after two weeks.


The video 2x
