Kimball Gunnar Holth doesn’t make anything, or it should be that he found something right before it’s finished. This drawing is what his hand found painting on paper. He left it for what it is, but still gave it a title. These works come from the series ‘Tile paintings’.

Lawrence Weiner’s primary medium is language, often in combination with red, yellow, blue coloured signs, or in mere black and white. He is a New York and Amsterdam-based sculptor who prefers to make art that is accessible, open-ended, mutable and transferable. In the ‘Art Meets Science Multiple’ the artist skipped linguistic language completely, making this work an uncommon outspoken pictorial piece within his oeuvre.
The depicted drawing here is a draft for a new envelope as soon as the first run of 1992 is out of stock. Until today this never happened. The image on the brown envelope suggests that the multiple ought to be installed as depicted. In fact at a later stage Lawrence Weiner preferred to have the piece installed as one likes, although he did not want to have that explicitly mentioned as such.

In April 1976 the first boats of refugees fleeing Vietnam sailed to various countries, heralding a series of arrivals over the next few years. Vietnamese-Dutch sculptor and painter Vinh Phúóng (born in 1959 as Nguyen Phuc Vinh Phúóng) born in Djiring, provincie Lam Dong, Vietnam was one of them. In the early nineties he had his first solo exhibition at Galerie van Gelder in Amsterdam. His motifs always have an undertone of pain and apparently urge to seek protection, together with a dark and enigmatic image making. In this context a broken tiny branche of silver suggests an expression of pain and loss, and not so much a light hearted mimicry of nature, as one may think at first sight.

This edition comes with an original shop envelope of Musée d’Art Moderne et d’Art Contemporain.
A light hearted text by Ben Vautier on the cardboard box reads: “Qui est Ben?
Je suis né le 18 Juillet 1935 à Naples de mère Irlandaise et Occitane père Suise Français. J’ai vécu en Turquie, Egypte et Grèce. J’arrive à Nice en 1949. Je cherche à faire ce qui n’a pas été fait. J’ai peur d’être un raté, j’aime les spaghetti parfois l’art m’ennui, j’ai envie d’être un arbre, je suis abonné au Monde, je perds la mémoire et ça m’embête, j’aime les extrêmes en art, j’expose un peu partout, mais ça m’angoisse, je vis actuellement à Nice avec ma femme Annie dans les collines, il ya un tilleul devant la maison, mes enfants sont grands et je perds tous mes Opinels.
