at the same museum (see my last post) we also saw the above pieces. a tissue box holder, a vase and a lamp. tissue box says "love", but the lamp is a kut-lamp and the vase a lul-vase. the dutch among you immediately saw that that is pretty weird....!! anyone else..? i suggest you use google translate or something... :) is it art? hmmm... is it weird? most definitely. would i buy it? probably not....
the artist is dienand christe and somewhere i just read that the thing he likes to do most is "annoying other people"...
the museum btw is the kunsthal in rotterdam. they currently have a very extensive exhibit on 50 years james bond. im not that big of a james bond fan, but i really liked the exhibit. there are a lot of gadgets on view, as well as dresses, costumes, storyboards, etc tec. its very nicely done and it even made me want to see a james bond movie! (although we still didnt get to do that). when we were there, it was extremely crowded (while the remainder of the museum was interesting too, but was quite deserted), so much so that we eventually did the exhibit from finish to start; we actually were able to see more that way.... :)

Naaah. Not to my taste even though I really like graphics. And I've never been a fan of James Bond.
The vase has possibilities!
These do seem quite Dutch to me. You folks seem to like words in art, like the wonderful iamsterdam sign in Amsterdam.
Well this is certainly not iamsterdam :) but this is a bit childish, like a child saying dirty words.
