Bram Hermens
28 Jul 2011 - 25 Mar 2012
BRAM HERMENS - BACTRIUS
in Het Oog
28 July, 2011 - 25 March, 2012
In the context of the exhibition programme VANUIT HIER - OUT OF HERE, the Eindhoven based artist Bram Hermens is invited to develop a big, new, wall art for Het Oog (The Eye).
Finisage on 28 January 2012.
Bram Hermens has a long tradition of work in and near to Eindhoven. His often larger than life figures have been on show at several cultural institutions in Noord-Brabant. His work not only refers to (art)historical imagery, but also reflects on contemporary political conflicts, like press photography tries to visualise. An example is the modern battle between the armed police force on horseback and the anti-globalists that emerged at De Krabbedans in 2005 and later developed into a more extensive drawing at the MU art center in Eindhoven.
Hermens tries, in his own words, “to visualise a reality behind the actuality.”
Since February 2009 Het Oog is a space in the ‘open air’ of the museum that gives artists space to work on a project for a period of six months.
