Juul
Hondius’
(1970, Ens)
deconstructs the media image and subsequently recontextualises it.
Dubious, or in the case of Hondius: ambiguous, forms of reporting enter
into the foreground. But Hondius does not show us his source material.
After all, the emphasis in his work lies not on the sender of the
message but on its receiver. The one who views it is the co-creator of
the image. The viewer is likewise responsible for the image that has
been constructed for him or her. Not only the media image serves as a
frame of reference but also the language of cinematographic imagery.
Hondius studied at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague. His
work has been exhibited at Kunsthalle Düsseldorf (2011), Joan Miro
Foundation, Barcelona (2011), Galerie Akinci, Amsterdam (2011), Yours
Gallery, Warsaw (2011), Museum de Fundatie, Heino (2010), Fotomuseum Den
Haag (2010), Kunsthalle Mannheim (2009), Platform Garanti, Istanbul
(2007), Centraal Museum, Utrecht (2007), Institute Neérlandais, Paris
(2007), Crac Alsace, Altkirch (2007), Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (2006en
2002), The Chicago Art Institue (2005), Museum Boijmans van Beuningen,
Rotterdam (2004), De Appel, Amsterdam (2004). |
