Open: 29th May 2016 14:00 - 18:00 o'clock

In ‘again, anew, afresh, anon & once more’ five students from the photography department of the Gerrit Rietveld Academie bring works developed with a focus on making and remaking, a focus on what can be learnt though the material process of making something. A process that puts emphasis on the evolution of a work of art rather than its conception.  The question this exhibition in particular will address is how then to bring these practices from the private to the public. How do you let someone into your artwork, into your practice?

The artists

Tim Cullmann - “I wonder why he’s the greatest DJ.” (Tony Touch). Remixing, Sampling, Appropriation, not as a conceptual trick but as a self-evident interaction with the world of pictures - art, photography, pop art, advertisement, fashion, amateur pictures. About the gleeful, naive and cheeky work with techniques, media, material and visual discourses. Today: Flowers.

Tiziana Krüger - The work is a form of an experimental laboratory in which various techniques and methods of systems of ordering are being examined. 

Nikola Lamburov – Photography has an illusive and fluid relationship with materiality. The image occupies the physical and thus destabilizes our experience of it. To distinguish between hallucination and materiality becomes harder and harder. To trace the course of the process through which our political landscape, identity and consciousness is shaped, specifically when it comes to issues of popular media production and representation.

Vytautas Kumža - Questioning the relationship between images of the object and the object itself. A space where the viewer loses certainty and starts questioning reality and essence. To produce three-dimensional objects from an image and to connect them with the visual material they originated from. Like movie props and sets, which look real, but have no functions.

Mathias Tang - Technology is political. Surveillance, warfare and the machine vision serve as an open framework to create a discourse about the political power and impact technology has on different levels of society.
