Recollected /Zet Foundation / Kristiina Koskentola, Seda Manavoglu and Tina Bastaijan a.o.
ZET Foundation organizes the exhibition Recollected at het Glazen Huis in Amstelpark.
For this exhibition the ZET Foundation invited eight artists to create and show a work inspired by the act of collecting, exploring the diverse uses of this term. In their works, the artists make use of archive materials, impressions, stories, and pre-existing objects. Collecting is understood as a verb that refers to a subjective action in which personal contexts, interests, and encounters are part of the process. Artists' interpretations and interventions become the basis of new images/works. The collective presentation, in turn, may become the source of new experiences and memories.
Participating artists: Jabu Arnell, Tina Bastajian/Seda Manavoglu, Ruta Butkute, Kristiina Koskentola Doina Kraal, Emilio Novani and Apostolos Ntelakos.
On June 5th 2011 at 3 PM Marens Engelhard, director of the (Amsterdam) City Archive, will open the Recollected exhibition at het Glazen Huis, located in Amstelpark.
