Louise Bristow
“I make my paintings by creating constructed arrangements, reminiscent of stage sets, which I then paint from. This process allows me to bring together different collage elements, such as my own photographs or found images from books and magazines, as well as three-dimensional models I have made of real or imagined buildings and architectural details.
There is a narrative element to much of my work. I am inspired by everyday things that I find around me,
and how these things express bigger ideas; graffiti on a wall in a street communicates one person’s political dissent,
and the design and imagery of a tiny postage stamp can encapsulate a nation’s ruling ideology…”
Von jedem eins
“Eine repräsentative Sammlung von Alltagsgegenständen, die thematisch gruppiert und von einem erhöhten Steg sichtbar sind. Nach ihrem Benutzerzusammenhang sortiert, werden die Dinge zu einer Art Meer ausgelegt. Dadurch entsteht eine andere Sicht auf die uns scheinbar vertrauten Gegenstände. Zusätzlich wecken sie in jedem andere Geschichten.” Karsten Bott.
Hans Eijkelboom
A very special street photographer and urban sociologist, Hans Eijkelboom. From his ‘10 EURO outfits’ series (2005-2006): ”I bought 32 new outfits for myself, initially once a week, later once a fortnight. The only criterion for my choice was the price: it couldn’t be higher than ± 10 euros.” All outfits are documented in a photo book. Serious asphalt.
