440 eur per stuk richtprijs

Ines Claus - La Shell EHBO

1000 eur richtprijs

Ines Claus (°1993, Antwerp) graduated in 2017 with a Master's degree in Liberal Arts from KASK Ghent. In her practice, she blurs the boundaries between drawing, painting, collage, publishing, and installation. Claus recycles motifs taken from everyday reality and embellishes them with swirls and checkered patterns. Through layered and audacious compositions, Claus creates a linguistic landscape composed of fragments found in the captivating realms of advertising, fashion, and interior design. The Rufus factor: Claus' brush renders brightly banal, elegant, and diabolical objects.

Rosanne Claes - Natura morta con pesci ed altri animali marini!

850 eur

The artistic practice of Rosanne Claes (Brussel, b. 1992) is driven by an ongoing fascination with the human will to happiness, and the manifold ways this striving is reflected in the historic and contemporary forms with which people surround themselves. Her drawings, sculptures and installations investigate and confront categories such as the sublime, the kitsch, the cute and the abject. In staging these aesthetic encounters she brings conflicting ideas at play: the autonomy of art, the beauty of the everyday, questions of taste, notions like the frivolous, the superficial or the grotesque.

Dora Brams : Wessel di Wesseli - perpetuum mobile

80 per stuk

In their site-specific works, Dora Brams (°2000, Antwerpen) addresses systems such as color codes, urban planning and rules of play. Previously, Brams presented 'Goose step' (2023) at Pizza Gallery, a series of six steps attached to the gallery's spiral staircase. In "Scampi Gallery," Brams shows "Wessel di Wesseli," an edition of the Antwerp artist/scientist of the same name. With this work, Brams comments on how group exhibitions prioritize curatorial concepts over individual artworks, often resulting in a selection process based on mutual acquaintances rather than artistic relevance. By introducing the work of another uninvited artist, Brams questions the boundary between making and exhibiting. Di Wesseli's work, "Vredes Energieën Oogst Kunst Werken," is a design of a perpetuum mobile. Whoever can contradict his formula for "perpetual motion" will receive the work as a prize.
