Kwasiafrikani

kwasiafrikani.nlDuring the last two weekends of November 2008, I take part with work of Ghetto protential in Kwasiafrikani, a nomadic art event, that evolved when Wim Vonk met Cas Rooseboom and Klaas de Jonge. It is based on their affinity with African art and art history. Alas ‘rules and regulations’ prevented the event from going public. However, a film will be made by Enno de Jonge, which can be seen in due course on the website of the event.

Update: Kwasiafrikani got covered by Weesper nieuws.

Inaugural address Harro Bouwmeester

the essence of plantsOn June 12, 2008 Harro Bouwmeester held his inaugural address in the Aula of Wageningen University at the occasion of his appointment to Chair of Plant Physiology. To commemorate this milestone I composed the book “The Essence of Plants”, containing the text of the address and a photographic impression of the day. Have an online preview or order a copy of the book in the webstore.



Some of the photographs that can be found in the book:




You can also have a look at the video of the address.

Exposition De koffietafel

4232During April and May 2007 you can visit the exposition De koffietafel in care center De Venser in Amsterdam Zuidoost. Old fashioned furniture, typically dutch coffee cups and table clothes like I remember them from my own grandmother make a nice setting for the traditional dutch coffee with a chat. The exposition offers an overview of the photos I made during my frequent visits to De koffietafel since 2006.
The photos will be permanently on display, distributed throughout the center, after the exposition. You’re always welcome in the center to come have a look.
