In the works of Marijke van Warmerdam anticipation is frequently present.

She moves an a world of dualism and is drawing attention for movements of one place to another, which creates a push or draw in time.

Each image looks very real and concrete, in both her film loops as well as in her photo works.

She speculates on obvious moments and mirrors places which are not there yet in real. In a loose way of working she uses β€˜and’-β€˜and’ concepts instead of β€˜either’-β€˜or’.

Abstract paintings freely reference the traditions of work and the traditions of the past, while ironically updating their previous impact.

He gives new cosmetic life to old objects. Reyes work redeploys familiar in order to treat old and new with equal care and irreverence.

The artist focuses on natural elements and the conditions under which they are experienced. Nature, science and technology converse in Eliasson’s human observations.

While his work is often compared to the seamless installations by light – and space artist James Turell and Robert Irwin, Eliasson lets the viewer see the ordinary lamps hoses, pumps and valves used to create this extraordinary effects.

The use of mirrors is just one of the ways the artist under scores the human subjectivity and individual perception of this work.

With little means he realizes unexpected visual results.

After the artist’s renowned β€œCremaster Cycle”, consisting of five films, sculpture, photography and drawing 1994-2003, Barney was inspired by the carnival in Bahia and moved by the inter-blending of Brazilian and the African culture.

An enormous forestry truck, covered with fresh mud represents ecology, serves as a stage for Arto Lindsay’sband as well as being a musical instrument itself.

Physical and thematic attributes of technology and nature are continuously explored in the β€œ De LamaLamina” film of 2004.

Lockhart is one of a new generation of artists working in the photographic tradition associated with Jeff Wall and Cindy Sherman.

However, while Sherman constructed and starred in her own, Lockhart acts as director. She casts her subjects like actors, scouts for locations, props and lights each scene, frames the picture through the camera lens, discusses what she’s looking for in the shot with assistants, and then steps back to assess the whole scene, while a professional camera operator takes the picture.

In this case, the result is of a Vermeer-like quality.
