Every day a new bird; headlines the article in newspaper Parool about Marielle Videler’s Bird Bath exhibition at Lumen Travo Gallery.
An article in the MISTER MOTLEY! Art about birds by Marielle Videler. Correspondent Jesse Lemmens visited Marielle Videler's Bird Bath solo exhibition at Lumen Travo Gallery. His article provides a detailed insight into the social and historical background of the Bird Bath project, Bird Club and the making of the installation 365 BIRDS.
The exhibition 365 PLANTS is open! Hartwig Art Foundation and Casco Art Institute present a large white wall that cuts through the space: fragile paper plants seem to float around it. The two sides of the wall, each representing half a year, clearly differ. With every new day the expression of the plants grew. 365 PLANTS is the outcome of a year-long collection of intricate, almost extraterrestrial plants that Marielle Videler created not by looking or thinking of a plant, but by using small scissors and black ink to slowly sense the plant. Exhibition 365 PLANTS is open till 19 december 2021.
