Haphazard, Ellert Haitjema

“Watching Closely, Thinking Wildly
Foreigness is my job – it captures my atention as noting else does. It’s why I travel a lot. And though I don’t really like moving around the hunger for images drives me to faraway places with foreign customs. But it is not only far away that I have my camera close to hand, pointed at improvised repairs ; wondrous, temporary structures ; inventive packaging and highly personal attributes marked by someone’s inexact use of materials. I am also constantly on the lookout for contributions of everyday imagination around the corner from me and on the street where I live.”

Nutzen und Nachteil, Markus Müller

Markus Müller takes a playful approach to artistic principles of design, referring to the style and epochs of art history. His works also incorporate the ideas that have emerged from his study of sculpture. He elevates his depictions of natural elements to works of art through their form of presentation and has created a nonfigurative sculpture that appears to be natural. In so doing, he raises questions about the criteria that define a found object as sculpture while also inquiring into the status of the object he represents, specifically their position within the laws that govern art.
