Description Work Marjan Laaper Marjan Laaper Studio: Maaskade 92a Tamboerstraat: 9 3071NE, Rotterdam 3034PT, Rotterdam The Netherlands The Netherlands Phone: 00 31 (0)10-4138241 0031 (0)6-12065669 [email protected] www.marjanlaaper.com Marjan Laaper (1971) In my work I use video, film, photography and electronic equipment. One could describe it as sculptural; by making site-specific installations and projections, the environment can become a significant component of the work. The illusory simplicity and stillness of the video projections hint towards photography. General human experiences, human thinking, observation, and the experience of every day life are starting points for my work. Often there is a tension between contradictory subjects and symbols like beauty and danger, the immaterial and the transitory trust and alarm. Movement and change are the ruling principles of life. In my work I explore the relationship each of us has with these universal forces as individuals. Trying to understand human thinking and behaviour continually provides me with starting points. The work does not give clear answers, but shows recognisable elements that generate questions. Work description, documentation (selection) 01. Vondelpark From the 9th of March until the first of April 2001 a light projection was shown on an 8 meter high screen at the Vondelpark in Amsterdam. At the edge of a large pool you could see a green image of the park at night, resembling something seen through night-vision goggles: so that details that normally cannot be seen become visible. On and between the trees you can see all kinds of shadows. Mysterious dark spots eventually resolve themselves into a shadow play. Finally you can see what caused these shadows: a deer trying to find his way through the trees. 02. This video shows two owls that sit very close to each other. Because their backs are leaning towards each other it looks as if the form the shape of a heart together. They sit very still but watch their surrounding very closely. They almost look like living icons. 03. “Bystander Intervention” A polar bear is resting his head on a stone wall. Next to his head a small bird, a wren, has landed. Is the bird asking for attention or is it concerned with the sleeping bear? What is going on with this animal that is supposed to be the symbol of strength. Every once in a while the bear moves his lips or opens his eye as if it reacts to the birds twittering. The spectator witnesses this very special moment. One would love to know about the communication between the two. The title of the work is a term used in psychology that refers to bystanders intervening (or not) in cases of emergency. 04. “The Butterfly Effect” Two butterflies have just landed on green leaves. In the background a dark threatening sound is heard. Suddenly the butterflies start moving their wings and the sound escalates to thunder. The butterfly wings move a-synchronically, a ballet of moving wings. Are the butterflies fighting or dancing? Is it a love ritual? Technically, The Butterfly Effect is a sensitive ‘dependence in initial conditions’ or ‘deterministic chaos’. The metaphor here proves that small incidents cause large effects. 05. “Tree of life” This video installation shows two projections on the back wall of the space and one small television screen. The television shows a big old tree in a natural setting. The two projections are zoomed onto the leaves so that water-drops become visible on the leaves. In the left projection the face of a child can be seen, it looks at the spectator. The right projection shows several different leaves with different parts of human history. Starting-point of the work is the witness of the human history by a tree. Because of its long life it can follow the life cycle of many generations. 06. “Baby” This work was projected in the city centre of Schiedam, the Netherlands. The face of a two and a half months old baby can be seen. The image is zoomed in and slowed down so the different expressions of the baby become much more visible and dramatic. The expressions range from neutral, happiness, and pain to complete rest. Because the video was projected in a public area where people pass by, A visual interaction between the baby expressions and the people passing by starts to exist. 07. Plants, 2007/ 2008 These video projections show a close up of a poppy and a thistle. At first sight, these stills are not moving, but after a while you see they are growing towards the light, They are inhabited by insects as the stern carries the weight of the bud. They are slightly moving, contemporary variations of a flower still-life that because of the Clair obscure light reminds us of 16th and 17th century painting. As in the traditional flower still life the symbolic meaning is obvious, (beauty, purity, mortality). The poppy is a very fragile flower that withers immediately after it’s picked. At the same time it is a pioneers plant with seeds able to germinate years later preferably in new soil. 08. “Whispering poplar” 2007/2008 This video installation is a double projection with sound. You see branches with leaves of the rattle poplar moving in de wind. The sound made by the leaves comes en goes forming an acoustic composite. In the olden days it was said the poplar was a speaking tree able to foretell the future. 09. “Dancing dust to dust” 2007/2008 Dancing dust to dust is a double video projection. Zoomed in on a cumulus of organic matter, you hear the music of E. Bernstein, “New beginnings” .The particles are moving, transforming like a microorganism, on the sound of the music. Because of the vibrant colours it seems all very cheerful in spite of the unfolding destruction and transformation. The title combines romantic love and the inevitable fate of change. 10. “The Raft” is a triple video projection. On the left a boat floats away from a child that hangs on a piece of rope that hangs above the water. From the moment the boat leaves the child it looks like there is no way back. Some children on the raft try to bring the boat back. Sometimes others occupy them or they decide to play along with the other children. Mutual dependency, joy but also frustration can be seen in a chaotic play. A wide spectrum of human behaviour becomes visible. Acts that turnover seamless from playing into romping, fighting, surviving, losing, abandoning, struggling and vanquishing. Sometimes heroic acts take place, when small children go into the water to push the raft back to the other side where the child is waiting for help. Because the child on the left is in need of help, the acts of the other children become moral dilemmas. What do the children chose to do? Will they act heroic or do they avoid the situation? Water is often a symbol of the big unknown, full of secrets. During their journey the children have to make many choices, that makes them aware of their strong and weak sides. Characteristics like egoism, laziness, cowardice, and disinterest, but also pride, courage, and heroism are being challenged. The struggle leads to moral conflicts and strong human emotions. 11. Public Art Commission, Schiedam. Title: Reflection. 3 faces with different ages ranging from 5, 50 and 80 years of age change into each other very 11 minutes. Project Title, and 25-word synopsis of project “Klipspringer” A vertical video projection of an antelope can be seen. The animal looks like a statue since it does not move but just looks at the viewer in the room. You can see that he is alive because you can see him breathe and sometimes he moves his nose. The white background gives the whole scene something magical.

  • What We Once Were
    PRESS RELEASE MURATCENTOVENTIDUE ARTECONTEMPORANEA WHAT WE ONCE WERE Rita Casdia, Cristiano De Gaetano, Elisabetta Di Sopra, Lello Gelao, Kaia Hugin, Kaja Leijon, Cristina Pavesi Galleria Muratcentoventidue Artecontemporanea is pleased to present What we once were , a group exhibition featuring works by Rita Casdia, Cristiano De Gaetano, Elisabetta Di Sopra, Lello Gelao, Kaia Hugin, Kaja Leijon, Cristina Pavesi. The exhibition proposes an original comparison of works which, through different languages, address a common theme, childhood, representing the spirit, the vulnerability, the playfulness, the unpredictability, the restlessness and the dignity of children. Rita Casdia’s work studies the basic mechanisms that govern feelings, focusing mainly on the dynamics generated by emotional connections and sexuality. The artist explores emotional worlds that evolve through a broken and uninhibited narrative structure in which she mixes references from classic iconography, random elements, everyday banality, but also from her experience and her dreams. Video animation, drawing, and sculpture co-exist in her installations and articulate an expressive universe rooted in the complex emotional and symbolic content she brings to it. The artist presents a series of extremely synthetic drawings , done with gel ink on paper, essential in the lines and contents where elements of the child's imagination appear, easy to read, and presented with multiple stratifications of meaning. There is a work by Cristiano De Gaetano, one of the most interesting talents of the new generations of Apulian artists, who unfortunately passed away in 2013, and to whom the Pascali Museum recently dedicated a tribute through an anthology exhibition. His wide production ranged from sculpture to photography, and from painting to video.

  • Fritz Stolberg Artist, Filmmaker
    KOMMUNIKATIONDESIGNKONZEPTKUNST Fritz Stolberg Artist, Filmmaker Biography Fritz Stolberg was born in Frankfurt, Germany and lives in Londonfrom where he operates as an artist and filmmaker. His practice follows a process-based approach situated in a dialogue with it’s immediate surroundings often using systems of divination as the main creative agent. Through the use of photo-sensitive media, performance, participatory event-based work, moving image and sound, his practice looks at the nature of light and a discussion around the origin of the visible world. Often seemingly lightheartedly flirting with serious philosophical notions, his films, installations, performances and event-based work gently highlight the thin boundaries between fact and fiction, myth and mystery in the imagination of his audience. His research is informed by a mixture of contemporary continental philosophy, new science, western occultism, eastern philosophies, ideas of utopia and explorations along the thin line that divides the world’s existence from its immanent non-existence. Parallel to his art practice he produces and directs Music- videos and Fashion-films. His work has been shown internationally in exhibitions and film festivals.

  • Directors Lounge Contemporary Art and Media
    Directors Lounge contemporary art and media Eine Einführung Directors Lounge contemporary art and media www.directorslounge.net • Prolog Zeitgleich mit den Berliner Filmfestspielen im Jahre 2005 fand die erste Directors Lounge statt. Was zunächst als Experiment begann, einen Raum geprägt von entspannter Atmosphäre für Filmemacher, Videokünstler und Filmliebhaber jenseits des Berlinale-Trubels zu schaffen, entwickelte sich rasch zu einer Plattform für internationale Filmkunst. Directors Lounge annektierte Leerraum, sowohl im realen, urbanen Raum als auch auf der Wahrnehmungsebene. Der magische Moment des gemeinsamen Sehens und Erlebens benötigt nicht Multiplexpaläste und glamoröse Events, er entsteht im entspannten Zusammentreffen von Machern und Publikum auf gleicher Höhe. Für Medienkünstler, Filmemacher und alle, die sich für neue experimentelle Formen des Kinos und der Videokunst interessierten, wurde Directors Lounge Refugium, Treffpunkt und Ausgangspunkt für neue kreative Kooperationen. Die überwältigende Reaktion seitens des Publikums, aber auch der Künstler selbst, ermutigte uns Directors Lounge fortzuführen. Nicht nur als jährliches Ereignis parallel zur Berlinale, sondern als kontinuierliche Plattform für Film und Medienkunst. • Hier und Jetzt An zahlreichen Orten, bei den unterschiedlichsten Kunstereignissen, Messen und Ausstellungen hat sich das Konz- ept, bewegte Bilder aus der Enge des Kinos zu befreien und in einen neuen räumlichen Kontext zu setzen, bewährt. Dabei ist Directors Lounge eine Plattform für alle Formen künstlerischer Nutzung von Film und Video ohne thema- tische Eingrenzung. Wir geben keine Inhalte vor sondern zeigen Trends und Entwicklungen auf, es ist die aktuelle Kunstproduktion selber aus der sich die spezifischen Schwerpunkte unserer Arbeit ableiten. Wir sind weder Filmfestival noch Mediengalerie, wir nutzen diese Formate als Matrix für Begegnungen die über die blose Kunstvermittlung hinaus gehen.
