Marijke Van Warmerdam
Besides numerous objects, installations and posters, Marijke van Warmerdam often worked with film installation, using simple, repetitive loops. Her projects at CCA, “Leap-frog in Kitakyushu” and her book “Diary 2000” are the examples of how she likes to react on places and people, more than creating an individual art work within four walls of a studio which in fact she doesn’t have. The artist says:

I prefer to make my works as loose sand. These are often the result of invitations for exhibitions, to which I react on the given situation in the first place. To me this is a much more natural way of working than making works in the studio, although of course in the end, the image counts most and for all, whatever cause my works have. The fact that my works gets another meaning in another context is something I like and want to keep open.”
