This is a small selection of images taken this afternoon when I visited the Rijksakademie Resident Artists 2009 show on press day. The show is open 28/29th November, 11.00-19.00. Sadly no printmaking going on here, and not much drawing to see (it's fair to say the making of beautiful things is not in fashion) - in fact, it's highly conceptual which means there are quite dismal and disappointing rooms displaying ripped up plastic, boring found objects, logs of wood and scattered paper. Above are the few works I did find interesting - including videos by Istvan Ist Huzjan called 'The De Bruin-Heijns' and another called 'The Eye of the Storm'.
