The many faces of Nienke Klunder

W&V — Sat, 21 Aug 2010 09:44:32 +0000

Nienke Klunder is a Netherlands based artist who works mainly in sequences and series, she often uses self-portraiture to explore themes of identity and transformation. One striking example of her work is her ” The Community” project. In this portrait series she explores the female quest for identity and self expression. The work does strongly remind us of the conceptual portraits by Cindy Sherman. Nienke klunder uses, just like Cindy Sherman, herself as model. In her photographic series she shows that every aspect of our daily choices in hair, make up, clothing and styling does add a layer of recognition from society of the character we are, would like or believe ourselves to be.

Vermin Twins | Exoskeleton video

W&V — Wed, 18 Aug 2010 08:47:14 +0000

Earlier this year the Vermin Twins (Micha Volders and Lotte Vanhamel) released their intriguing and innovative debute album “Exoskeleton” which was a cocktail of freestyle experimental pop, dance and electronica with an avantgarde edge. Now they have released a video for the title track of this album.

This is what they said themselves, on their Facebook page, about this new video:

“Vermin Twins made a new video for “exoskeleton” just for fun! No budget, no crew, no hifi equipment but a handheld digital camera and a lot of work!”

We think the video is a fascinating and strong piece of work and it shows that their talent also applies in the visual presentation of their music. Creating this level of work with minimal resources is something you don’t see a lot these days. With virtual no budget, Lotte and Micha manage to create the full package in this video: music, sound, dance and visuals melt into a strong and exciting performance.

Zimoun | Sound Sculptures & Installations

W&V — Fri, 13 Aug 2010 05:24:42 +0000

Zimoun is a Swiss artist who is residing in Bern. To develop his work he has often collaborated with other artists and experts who work in various other fields like for example architecture, science, research engineering.

The sound sculptures and installations of Zimoun are graceful, mechanized works of playful poetry, their structural simplicity opens like an industrial bloom to reveal a complex and intricate series of relationships, an ongoing interplay between the artificial and the organic. We find these intriguing sculptures fascinating and very inspiring.

Sadler’s Wells dance house | Electric hotel and Shoes

W&V — Wed, 11 Aug 2010 08:19:28 +0000

Electric hotel was a uniquely designed outdoor dance show presented by Sadler’s Wells, London’s Dance House. A fly-by-night hotel was brought to life through dance and sound and accommodated the stage set of David Rodenberg and Frauke Requardt’s dance performance. Electric hotel featured the stories of seven character intertwined in a compelling dance and theatrical experience. We hope that this intriguing performance will get a rerun.

Another promising dance performance presented by Sadler’s Wells will be the dance performance titeled: Shoes.
Inspired by one of the great passions of the modern age, Shoes explores the gamut of footwear, from the highs of the Louboutin to the lows of the Croc. Composed by Richard Thomas, in his first large-scale production since the legendary West End and Broadway hit Jerry Springer – The Opera, Shoes features 32 toe-tappingly catchy, footwear-inspired song and dance numbers – and sees life told from street-level perspective with wit, irreverence and affection.

Shoes features choreography and direction by multi-award winning Stephen Mear. Alongside Mear, Sadler’s Wells has invited leading choreographers Aletta Collins, Sidi Larbi Cherkaoui, Kate Prince and Mark Smith to create dance numbers inspired by Thomas’s songs. A cast of 12 dancers will perform in over 250 pairs of shoes.

The below video gives an impression of the creation process of the dance performance shoes.

Shoes will be performed at the Sadler’s Wells Theatre on Rosebery Avenue, London between the 3rd and 11th of September.

W&V — Fri, 06 Aug 2010 09:22:53 +0000

In the above video the Los Angeles based noise conductor Nosaj Thing performs an improvised Dj Set live on Kexp. It is very inspiring to see the master musical modulator create his electronic soundscapes and wild beat tectonics in the studio of Kexp radio. We like this very much.

The Paris, France, based photographer Luc Braquet has a fascinating point of view which is revealed in his photographs.Regardless whether he shoots fashion, people, landscapes or creates shots from his travels his captured points in time and on specific locations are showing a feel of casual observation and reality. His images are not just shots which show life but they basically are life and the world around us themselves. The beauty of everyday reality.

Permutations Software generating poems by Brion Gysin

W&V — Mon, 02 Aug 2010 09:17:37 +0000

New York based artist Joseph Moore wrote the software “Permutations” for the currently running exhibition Brion Gysin: Dream Machine on display at The New Museum for Contemporary Art in New York. The Exhibition is a retrospective of the work of the painter, performer, poet, and writer Brion Gysin (born 1916, Taplow, UK–died 1986, Paris). Working simultaneously in a variety of mediums, Gysin was an irrepressible inventor, serial collaborator, and subversive spirit whose considerable innovations continue to influence musicians and writers, as well as visual and new media artists today.

The “Permutations” software by Joseph Moore is a “version” of the program developed by Ian Sommerville and Gysin in 1960 to permute poems. Moore has attempted to create a realization of the work that is sensitive to the original and its process. At the same time, it is a new version, a collaboration done in the spirit of an artist whose work provides a critique of conventional notions of authorship. Moore believes that it is also in the spirit of the work to share copies of it and made his “Permutations” Software avilable to download from Github. The concept and artistic process of this project is fascinating.
