Tomorrow at the annual Rotterdam museum night, I’ll be showing a new piece at the Sara Tim Trust artistspace located at the Mauritsstraat #167. In a response to this year’s museum night theme ‘XS/XL’ Sara Tim Trust themed their night ‘Revenge of the 50 ft Artists’. They invited me to make something on their huge blackboard and I came up with this little mindbender entitled ‘50 huge feet’. Come check it out, it turned out quite good.
Other participants are 113b, Olivier Scheffer and SARATIMTRUST itself (consisting of graphic designer Andreia Costa, photographer Frank Hanswijk, fashion designer Iñiy Sanchez, allround cultural entrepeneur Natasa Heydra and visual artist / film maker Tim Leyendekker). There’s a bar, local hero Philibert S. cuts a Spanish ham and DJ Chairman of the Board and myself will be playing some of our finest tunes.
Who could have foreseen this… it’s beautiful and amazing (it’s even bigger than our website can handle!) and like every other thing Jimi did. Sorry for not posting for so long. It’s really really busy. I”ll be back soon with lots more on (amongst other things) my new piece showing at the Rotterdam Museum Night, Marcel Wiebenga’s super cool new weblog on music, love, life, politics and what have you. Bye bye!
FFWD Dance Parade is dead!
This picture is taken on the first FFWD Dance Parade in 1997 by Frank Hanswijk. You see Woei, Merijn Cool, Cois, Vrekje, Den Haag, Perry and me, and some others in the back… Westside!!!
The New Earth Group did it again! Coming 20th of February, they’ll be releasing their (often feared) second album called ‘Eurafricarabia’ (thru Excelsior Recordings instead of Willy Anderson this time) in Rotown Rotterdam. A second release party is to be at the Paradiso Upstairs, march 13. As is custom with T.N.E.G. ‘Eurafricarabia’ will be available on both CD and (double) vinyl!
Suus and me have taken care of the cover design(s) again (we also ‘did’ their before mentioned debut album) and I guess especially for those of you living in The Netherlands the design —based very much upon the title— kind of speaks for itself. See if you can spot our self colored Cleisthenes(!) and find out all about that Voyager Golden Record (somewhere in the Zeeland / Noord Brabant area) on wikipedia, it’s ace!. Nice extra is that the boys at Excelsior have some Terry Gilliam-esque animations made from our cut-outs. Those can be seen right here.
