Streetmodernism
August 31 - Sept 30 2007
Curators: Nous Faes & John de Weerd (Showroom MAMA)
Opening: Friday Aug 31 / 19.00 - 23.00 h.
On first sight the exhibition Streetmodernism displays the visual language of comics, tags, games, animation and tattoos. The high level of handicraft and buff expression create impressive, engaged uderground works of art. But just as easy you can see the relation with the world of classical sculpture and the modernistic parole. In short; from the street up there's lots to experience.
Participating artists: Wouter Feyaerts (BE), Philip Metten (BE), Abigail Lazkoz (ES), Lennard Schuurmans (NL), Nick Ervinck (BE), IRIS (NL) en Luuk Bode (NL).
