Cees Krijnen

Né en 1969 en Hollande, Cees Krijnen a atteint la célébrité 1 en transformant l’histoire du divorce de ses parents en une performance intitulée Woman in Divorce Battle on Tour 2000. Au centre de celle-ci se trouve Greta Blok, la mère de Cees, désormais ambassadrice des femmes divorcées des Pays-Bas.

“I asked my mother to perform with me in a piece called Financing My Parents’ Divorce. It was for the Prix de Rome and I designed therapy for her in the form of a portable pill machine that blew powdered aspirin into the air. Then I got the members of the jury, who were all men, to act as prospective boyfriends like a dating agency. It was funny and they were definitely surprised.”

Amie Dicke INTERVIEW at the Gas Project blog

Amie Dicke started cutting away fashion posters when she was on a residency in New York. ‘I started to project my loneliness on the city where the most familiar faces were those of the supermodels on the buildings and in the magazines,’ she has said.

Dicke turns the familiar images of advertising into something rare and strange, revealing the dark, gothic structures that lie beneath their surface. Images intended to project desirability, are exposed as empty and hollow. The models appear as phantoms, the flow of forms echoing tears as they cascade down the body.

“I ALWAYS START by cutting out the model’s eyes,” says Amie Dicke.

“New Season, New Girls, New Looks” is Dicke’s debut solo exhibition currently running at D’Amelio Terras Gallery. Julia Morton Nypress.com
