Venice Biennale 2011: Meet Brit Mike Nelson

Venice Biennale 2011: Meet Brit Mike Nelson | Art Installations, Sculpture, Contemporary Art | Scoop.it

Representing Great Britain, installation artist Mike Nelson is also featured in Singapore currently.

Mike Nelson's graveyard of wounded plinths functions as an imitation of a once-grand exhibition. seemingly suffering from an attack and complete disrepair, the breaking and destruction of objects helps the viewer to conjure a memory of clean surfaces and contrast their memories with the environment of the piece.

Built from the remains of a previous exhibition, nelson took the destructed panels and rebuilt them into the plinths seen here. Originally on display in london in an clean white-walled space, it is at the 2011 singapore biennale on the bare concrete floors and almost abandoned
looking space that the piece plays a heavier role for viewer. The usual mixing of theatrical elements and fabricated objects found in Nelson's work comes to play in the building itself being surrounded by overgrown natural elements, extending the piece outside of the room.

Ludwika Ogorzelec: spatial composition of the cycle "Space Crystallization" (wood), Copper Museum, Legnica (Poland), 1995

 

“The space crystallization” proposes active space having as their purpose the ability to touch the basic universal sensitivities of person and to reveal cultural stereotypes (Polish-nests or Japanese-nests, or French-nests, or American-nests) and the psychological baggage, personal behavior codes and habits." L.O.

Cornelia Ann Parker: "Cold, Dark Matter"

Cornelia Ann Parker: "Cold, Dark Matter" | Art Installations, Sculpture, Contemporary Art | Scoop.it

Cornelia Parker is an English sculptor and installation artist. She makes site-specific work, and is best known for large-scale installations such as Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View (1991), where she had a garden shed blown up by the British Army and suspended the fragments as if suspending the explosion process in time. In the centre was a light which cast the shadows of the wood dramatically on the walls of the room.

Arne Quinze: "Cityscape"

Arne Quinze: "Cityscape" | Art Installations, Sculpture, Contemporary Art | Scoop.it

Cityscape by Arne Quinze in Brussels, 2007

 

CityScape is a colossal fortress of tangled wood hovering in the heart of Brussels reflecting a frozen moment in time gesturing the increasingly influential city of Brussel within Europe’s capital. The project was funded by MINI for to coincide with the world premiere of the new MINI Clubman Car, which is pretty sweet, though the back reminds me of a refrigerator nostalgically.

CityScape is the vision of designer Arne Quinze who directs the fast paced multidisciplinary firm Quinze&Milan.
