MAMA's tijdelijke fair fever....

We ontvingen een ‘to-good-to-be-true'-uitnodiging van de organisatie van Scope London om aanwezig te zijn op hun nieuwe beurslocatie in Londens hippe East-London gallery district en we konden simpelweg niet weigeren....

Enkele telefoontjes en we hadden een nieuwe expositie genaamd ‘Low Lens - New Dutch Photography', gecureerd door Ken Pratt (Londen) en Nous Faes (directeur MAMA).

Dhr. Pratt staat zelden met z'n mond vol tanden en beschrijft de expo als volgt:

"Dutch culture was one of the first to embrace photography as a valid art form and to elevate it to the same status as other practices used by ' fine' artists. "Low Lens" combines the works of five contemporary artists. Here the traditional national concerns with documentary, clear presentation and sociological questions remain evident. Yet this is the work of a mass media literate generation, fashion conscious and ready to exploit and subvert both technological potential and contemporary visual cultural languages".

We hebben voor Low Lens werk geselecteerd van:
Martin C. de Waal
Risk Hazekamp
Monique Benthin
Andriaan van der Ploeg

Iedereen is welkom in MAMA's booth op de beurs van 12 - 15 oktober, Old Truman's Brewery 91-95, Brick Lane Londen.

Mocht je in Londen zijn, kom dan zeker samen met MAMA feesten tot het ochtendgloren op ‘the Unfair Party' met o.a. HK119 en Hannah Holland. Hannah zette ook al de tent op z'n kop tijdens onze Ballroom Blitz party in GayPalace vorige maand.

Report: Low Lens in London

MAMA's temporary fair fever.....

When we received a special-special invitation from the organization of Scope London to be present at their fair's new location in London's hot East London gallery district, we just couldn't resist...

A few quick phonecalls and we had a new show on called Low Lens - New Dutch Photography, curated by Ken Pratt (London) and Nous Faes (director MAMA).

Never one to be short of words, Mr Pratt describes the show as follows:

"Dutch culture was one of the first to embrace photography as a valid art form and to elevate it to the same status as other practices used by ' fine' artists. "Low Lens" combines the works of five contemporary artists. Here the traditional national concerns with documentary, clear presentation and sociological questions remain evident. Yet this is the work of a mass media literate generation, fashion conscious and ready to exploit and subvert both technological potential and contemporary visual cultural languages".

For Low Lens we selected works of:
Martin C. de Waal
Risk Hazekamp
Monique Benthin
Adriaan van der Ploeg

You're all welcome to visit us between October 12 - 15
at Old Truman's Brewery, 91-95 Brick Lane, London.

When you're there don't forget to party with us till dawn at the Unfair Party with a.o. HK119 and Hannah Holland who got you all excited at our Ballroom Blitz party in Gaypalace last month!
