Kunsthal Rotterdam
November 2018
Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam
Metahaven: Earth I like the aesthetics (fragments from everyday life and digital culture, recognisable popular signs and symbols such as 'YouTube' in combination with more documentary-like shots), enjoyed watching videos, the way they approach the viewer is not aggressive but rather calm, concentrated; 3 channel video with people walking on an abandoned airstrip reminded me of my home village with similar nature (pine trees, yellowish grass) and the remains of military infrastructure
EYE Museum (Amsterdam)
January 2019
IFFR 2019 - notes
February 2019
Kunsthal
Kunsthal: Blackout (exhibition within IFFR) The exhibition of works presented with slide projectors, intensive sound and warmth in the space, sounds like being in a bee swarm. Many works address the concepts of memory, history, past and present. Images seem to have a velvet-like feel, sharp and soft at the same time. Very tactile. Title has layered meanings, which I like. Few works I like the most:
Floris Vanhoof: Fossil Locomotion: interesting way of animating still images with rather slow projector - use more of them! (4 projectors). At the same time the artist animates fossils that have been still for millennia ... flickering, moth-like movements.
Nguyen Trinh Thi: Landscape Series #1
http://vimeo.com/67903807 Open to interpretation - human pursuit of something unreachable or something not yet discovered, the need for something you cannot get, or urge to see something that is already gone or has not yet happened. Mysteriousness. humour (repetition of scene of people pointing at something that was supposed to be there in the lanscape). With repetition, usual journalist picture reveals people's behaviour as absurd, funny and pointless.
Raha Raissnia: Mneme
EYE Museum Amsterdam
Jan Švankmajer: The Alchemical Wedding
