About This Item
Hannibal Kannibaal 2017. Gebonden, Hardcover, 28,5 x 24,5 cm,160 bladzijden, Hardcover,Quadrichromie,Tweetalige editie Engels-Nederlands. ISBN 9789492081995. De Spaans-Nederlandse kunstenaar Raquel Maulwurf (1975) heeft het afgelopen decennium een eigen positie verworven met tekeningen die tegelijk de ontzaglijke kracht van de natuur en het menselijke falen verbeelden. Maulwurf is gefascineerd door de onontkoombare vernietigingszucht van de mensheid: het verwoesten van de eigen leefomgeving door oorlog en ecocide. Door het werken op zeer groot formaat en door muurtekeningen over meerdere wanden te maken, creeert zij het gevoel haar tekeningen in te kunnen lopen. Die derde dimensie werd letterlijk toegevoegd in haar tekeningen vanaf het moment dat zij het museumkarton waarop zij werkt, ging openkrassen met een stanleymes. Dit bijzondere boek bevat afbeeldingen van de werken uit Maulwurfs solotentoonstelling in het Gemeentemuseum Den Haag en een ruime keuze uit haar rijke oeuvre van de laatste tien jaar. Foto's van haar ateliers en prachtige close-ups van haar buitengewone krastechniek geven een goed beeld van het creatieve proces van de kunstenaar. De expo in Den Haag, waarvoor zij speciaal de installatie The Carbon War Room ontwikkelde, loopt van 18 maart tot 18 juni 2017. Met tekstbijdragen van Benno Tempel, directeur van het Gemeentemuseum Den Haag, en Jeroen Dijkstra van Livingstone Gallery, en met citaten van vooraanstaande kunstprofessionals en critici zoals Cherry Duyns en Hans den Hartog Jager. The Spanish-Dutch artist Raquel Maulwurf (1975) has acquired his own position over the past decade with drawings that simultaneously depict the immense power of nature and human failure. Maulwurf is fascinated by humanity's inescapable thirst for destruction: the destruction of one's own living environment through war and ecocide. By working on a very large format and by making wall drawings over several walls, she creates the feeling of being able to walk into her drawings. That third dimension was literally added to her drawings from the moment she started scratching open the museum cardboard on which she works with a box cutter. This special book contains images of the works from Maulwurf's solo exhibition in the Gemeentemuseum The Hague and a wide selection from her rich oeuvre of the last ten years. Photos of her studios and beautiful close-ups of her extraordinary scratching technique give a good idea of ??the artist's creative process.
