During spring cleaning I decided to throw away a big stack of magazines. My wife wanted the floor to be visible. But I still wanted to remember some of the most interesting artworks and artists. So these are my notes. - I'm always amazed at how many good artists there are and how many different ideas exist.
1) The stark minimalist art of Fernanda Gomes.
2) The strange obsessions of Paul McCarthy. Well known in Rotterdam for his Santa Claus with buttplug statue.
3) The Cosmopolitan Chicken Project by Koen van Mechelen.
4) Cassette tape cyanotypes by Christian Marclay. Also known for his plunderphonics music pieces.
5) Mikael Olsson photographed and documented the deserted house of the Swedish architect Bruno Mathsson.
6) A haunting picture by Adriana Lozano.
7) Exploration and photography around the disappearing Aral Sea by Anton Ginzburg.
8) The monastic landscape art made by Julie Brook. She lives on lonely islands and makes site-specific artworks in those far away places.
