Josephine Gordijn exhibition at the Goliath Boetiek

03.09.10

The Goliath Boetiek has started to exhibit exciting work by emerging and established artists. The artist’s work is being selected and curated by the Bob Smit Gallery. The first exhibition features the work of Josephine Gordijn and is currently on display in the Boetiek until the 17th of October.

Josephine Gordijn studies at the Art Academy in Berlin, where she focuses on making collages. Initially she made digital collages, but was soon drawn to working with real materials. By collecting and re-using pictures from old magazines and books to create a new narrative, Josephine’s work juxtaposes an often sinister and macabre content with form, resulting in highly decorative and attractive layered images.

Visit the exhibition now at the Goliath Boetiek and take a look!

Bob's sculpture

07.07.10

For the duration of the Bread & Butter fair our resident artist Bob Smit could be found immersed in piles of packaging.

When this sculpture comprising of a leg attached to a chair emerged we had to wonder why. Bob’s response was that everybody wears shoes, they use and abuse them, and eventually even a shoe needs to put its feet up. After three long days on our feet we felt we really understood!
