Ton Kraayeveld




Since an African residency period in 2000 the works of Ton Kraayeveld move between poles formed by African (non western) reality on one hand and European (western) cultural and painterly tradition on the other. No tourist clichés however.
Last years his work shows pseudo realistic constructions occasionally referring to Africa. In an exhibition in Berlin in 2003 Kraayeveld presented in a cool conceptual, yet playful ironic way a plan to project an African township in the district of Kreuzberg, Berlin.

Klaus Kinski - Jesus Christus Erlöser



“Ich bin nicht der offizielle Kirchenjesus, der unter Polizisten, Bankiers, Richtern, Henkern, Offizieren, Kirchenbossen, Politikern und ähnlichen Vertretern der Macht geduldet wird. Ich bin nicht euer Superstar!”

Berlin, Deutschlandhalle, 20. November 1971. Auf einer leeren Bühne, einsam im Kegel der Scheinwerfer, tritt Kinski auf. Schulterlanges Haar, einfache Jeans, ein Hemd mit Blumen- und Punktmustern. Ohne Kulissen, ohne Bühneneffekte, ohne Kostüm.
Er rezitiert seinen eigenen Text JESUS CHRISTUS ERLÖSER und realisiert damit ein Projekt, mit dem er sich schon über zehn Jahre beschäftigt.

Carl Krull




Carl Krull dessine depuis toujours. De manière obsessionnelle, il trace des corps, des éléments architecturaux comme une représentation de connexions mentales et physiques. Les lignes abruptes et rudes de ses œuvres sur papier nous font pénétrer à l'intérieur même du cortex cérébral de ses personnages ; l'attitude de ses corps noueux, les rictus, quelques rares éléments : crâne, aiguille, escalier, … sont autant de pistes vers les états d'âme duaux des personnages : souffrance, bien être, joie, peine, recueillement et fureur.

Namaiki



We’re more concerned with playing around and goofing off very professionally. Hard work and tomfoolery is the idea. Most of our work is not rational (though I have been post-rationalizing it here for you!); [most of our projects are] made in the spirit of a practical joke, whatever makes people laugh. The workshops that we do are always in the spirit of “no rules” and collaborative play, so a lot of the stuff is generated by kids, and old people, and whomever. Trying to get rid of the “I am an artist, and so you listen to me!” kind of crap. Sixteen-year-old girls can definitely draw images that I could never think of. Everyone has a voice, and everyone can be involved.

Alison Ward



Alison Ward’s work can be thought of as theatre, satire, performance art or self-portraiture, with an overall coherent theme. She turns our normal perceptions of female and male sexuality upside down, using characters she has created to illustrate ideas - she simplifies them, then blows them out of proportion, till everything is double-sided. Women are dripping with strength and sexuality which prohibits them from interacting in the world in a normal way – so they reshape the world to fit their own needs, much like Alison herself.
