Book launch Re-Relating in art practice

17.12.2021
19:00 CET

I am thrilled to present the publication "Re-Relating in art practice", which has been three years in the making due to Corona obstacles, and is now happily available, hot off the press.
 
Created as a self-publishing project, the book reflects the relationships between the artworks and art practice of a group of artists presented in text and image. It is conceived as an "exhibition" in book format, which brings up this "in-between space" in texts by various authors and makes the field of interaction visible and tangible.

In the presence of participating artists and authors, this book will now be presented and its birthday celebrated, so to speak, accompanied and moderated by Bérénice Staiger.

Hurrrahhh! We cordially invite you to this book presentation and birthday celebration.

The book presentation will take place online. You can join us via this streaming-link:

The contributors to this publication are:

Thomson (GB,DK,NL), Norbert Weimer (DE), Lynette Smith (AU), Eléonore Pano-Zavaroni (FR), Synonym2(net), Rachel Carey (US,NL), Elias Dörig (CH)

With thanks to Stichting Droom en Daad, Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds, Gemeente Rotterdam, CBK Rotterdam and Goethe-Institut Rotterdam, as well as to all the individual people who helped this book project to its final realisation via crowdfunding.

A warm invitation to our annual Open Studios, July 2-4, 2021

004 collective featuring Shardenia Felicia

 

In a "mode of complementation" we re-define already realized concepts of our different individual artistic practices in order to reset and engage the works for re-opening of formerly drawn singular conclusions. To distil a common, relational and intermediate in-between space. This July, Shardenia Felicia (Curacao-Netherlands) takes the stage. She presents a recent installation with objects and performance that she has built for this occasion as a starting point. We then take on the given setting to resonate with a work.

Shardenia will perform in her installation on Friday at 14:00 and Sunday at 16:00.

Also on view, the findings from my research trajectory Making the in-between space between artworks speak, which was kindly funded by CBK Rotterdam.

Fri/Sat/Sun 11:00 - 19:00
Studios Borgerstraat, Borgerstraat 24, 3027 EB Rotterdam, NL

wrapped blue, my contribution to the show THIS IS,
installation view at Hilton Art Lab, 2020

in the back: work by Milou van Ham

 

 

 

- - -

 

 

 

 

THIS IS ( all there is )


Danni van Amstel – Kathrin Wolkowicz – Milou van Ham –
Arianne van der Gaag – Dagmar Baumann


This title surely is not the expression of disappointment or indifference. It’s more an invitation for ‘Taking it as it is’. No need to look for the narrative, for the meaning behind the work. Everything is there to be captured at the first glance – the clarity of facing the visible, perceiving the actual.
The separate works come along as bold or subtle or almost invisible gestures, but in any form they address a congruency between making and perceiving, both enhancing the little shock of presence, contained in 5 approaches:

stringing tiny pearls into stringy forms by Arianne van der Gaag 

creating a wall-filling description of a sentence, executed with mathematical precision by Milou van Ham 

celebrating the gesture with a pink brushstroke by the hand of Dagmar Baumann 

reformulating the unapparent as a photographic facade - Danni van Amstel

evoking memories of movement, with video screens in translucent paper bags by Kathrin Wolkowicz

 

Due to the current situation there will be no opening; instead we work with appointments for 3 people max. 


The installation is visible from the street throughout the exhibition-period from October 30th to November 22nd 2020. Please attend to Herman Lamers to make an appointment during the days that the exhibition can be visited: mail to info@hermanlamers.nl

On invitation by artist ieke Trinks, I have been developing a work for the thrift store Gi-Cycle, as part of ieke´s project Precarious Things / Onbestendige Dingen in the framework of Charlois Speciaal, festival of the arts the South of Rotterdam.

 

drawing of a thing by Rhona Walhof

 

ONBESTENDIGE DINGEN / PRECARIOUS THINGS
Art in Charlois' thrift stores

 

Due to the latest Covid-19 measures, the last 3 presentations of Precarious Things (HOME in the future, How to put it, and Museum for Broken Things) have been postponed until a yet to be determined date.

 

POSTPONED
Gi-Cycle, Katendrechtse Lagedijk, Charlois
* Kathrin Wolkowicz
how to put it
Unparalleled objects from Gi-Cycle form the point of departure for a new performative work that Kathrin Wolkowicz showcases in the shop´s window at announced times.


Onbestendige Dingen (Precarious Things) represents the changing nature of objects that surround us in our everyday environment. It also stands for how we as humans constantly relate ourselves to those objects.
 
In October, every weekend there are exhibits and activities to attend in one of these Charlois Rotterdam thrift stores. In addition to her own participation, ieke Trinks has invited three other local artists to develop a work or an activity in one of the shops. Furthermore, the music theater collective VOX (also partly locally) is performing two times on location. For each of the artistic contributions, the object - or series of objects - are taken as the starting point, always from a completely different position. KOFI for instance, creates new functional lamps by using discarded objects. Theater group VOX shows us how objects can tell us a lot without the need to speak. Inspired by the SF/Fantasy bookshelf in the store 5314 Vintage, mariëlle verdijk invites you to speculate with her about our domestic life in the year 2220. Kathrin Wolkowicz lets herself being guided by the things in the shop for her performance and installation in the window. And lastly, ieke Trinks asks us to look at objects in their broken state of being.

THE AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL
02.11.2018
Doors 20:00, start 20:30

For Performance aan de Laan, Gerwin Luijendijk´s series of performance evenings in Rotterdam South, I curated an evening with performances around spoken/written word:

Considering autobiography an account to the life of oneself which events, happenings, incidents, coincidences would we draw attention to? How do we reflect on our own life as becoming? In this process, can we recall, review or reinterpret and therefore rewrite one's own history?
This evening is an attempt to make, play and interpret modes of self-reading and self-referentiation. We would like to invite you to attend a consenting piece, a sound with a painting, a writing lecture, an expert's opinion, a phased reading, a musical revue and an other-piece.
 
With contributions by Marcus Bergner, Rachel Carey, Toine Horvers, PQI (Patricia Pluijmers), G.J. de Rook, Heyer Thurnheer and Kathrin Wolkowicz

Distance, stay close. Out of arm´s length it begins to look like war. A strong definite lead on the other hand avoids getting too rough. Move well so you can think of something else or carry on a conversation. Act all the time like glass reaching out for a hand. Share flatness as the table does. Direct brute openness to form because everything that breaks up builds relations. Bake a key.

An exhibition on interrelational conditions and affections. From organisms and things, among blood bonds and adoration, between internalized thinking, projection and censorship – we are linked and connected; we position ourselves towards others and things, groups and mechanisms, acting on suggestions or abandoning ourselves to an impulse. What are those encounters / these touches to one or the many; and what does the in-between offer? What makes us move or feel for? A walk with ideals and estrangement, orientation and dissipation.

Secret Garden
08.06.2018 - 10.06.2018, 13:00 –18:00
Opening 07.06.2018, 18:00-20:00

Wielewaal is an area in Charlois, Rotterdam, with an astonishing rural vibrancy. Serving an urgent housing need after World War II, it was initially intended as a temporary settlement. In the course of urban development, plans have been laid out that foresee a replacement of the single-storey houses with multi-level buildings. Though half of the area´s houses have already been deserted, Wielewaal could still be considered a paradise with beautiful gardens, a considerable variety of birds, flowers and small animals.
Five artists are drawing on the concept of garden in the transitional situation of this settlement. Their works are shown in an apartment characteristic of this neighbourhood.

Dusk To Dawn Choruses
09.012.2017
doors open 20:00, performance at 20:30

Dusk to Dawn Choruses is the first iteration of Julien Grossmann and Song-Ming Ang's research into the various forms and definitions of the chorus. From the ancient Greek chorus to modern telecommunications companies (Chorus Limited), and from morning birdsongs (dawn choruses) to the humming of Chorus Motors (Borealis Exploration), the project is a musical journey into what a chorus could be.
The outcome of a five-day workshop with an ensemble of five performers from Rotterdam, the evening's program features a range of musical experiments based on instructional scores and compositions in which the voice occupies a central place.

LUNGS OF SUGAR
11.07.2017 - 19.08.2017
Opening: 22.07.2017, 18:00

A chant or call. Who is speaking? Harp or wire that makes sounds. Branches. Stretched out twigs yield forms and scapes. Land is veiled. Land is vain and vertical. Land is braid. Land is lost and gained. Land is brittle, bold and frayed. Active longings tendrilise. 

The show “Lungs of Sugar” dedicates a stage to sound and ornament. It wishes to approach their qualities - repetition, adornment and processuality - in relation to notions of artistic production, spatio-temporal perception as well as positioning towards our surroundings.
