Galerie Fons Welters is pleased to announce an exhibition “Redefining Realness” by Berend Strik. The exhibition will be on view till 7 January, 2017.The relation between the creative space and the aesthetic views of well- and lesser-known artists form the subject of a series of works taking as a starting point a photograph either made or found by Strik. These images are reworked with coloured thread by embroidering, stitching and appliquéing with velvet and transparent fabric. In this way Strik adds an extra layer to the photograph and obtains access to work, so to speak, in the photographic space. Aspects that intrigue Strik are emphasized by these additional layers and clarify his connection with the artists, subject to the respective works.The exhibition is showcased at Bloemstraat 140-1016 lj Amsterdam.
