Bio and Abstract

Dennis van Vreden (NL) is a media artist living in Rotterdam whose practice has ranged from painting to interactive installation. Pop culture has been the main theme and biggest influence in his latest work. His first show ビヨンセ! Biyonse was an interactive piece where the users movements were re-enacted by a digital projection of Beyoncé set in Botticelli's Birth of Venus. In his latest event he directed his first live performance, properly named Performance #1 which deals with behavioral patterns of a performing artist.

They Touched Beyoncé is an ongoing series of performances, rehearsals and video pieces. In this work he has directed various artists and explores the notion of performance through its commanding power, re-enactment and idolization.
