hugo arcier




hugo arcier's 'boolean nature' project. as he explains about the work: "in logic and computer programming, a boolean operator is a type of variable between two states. in computer-generated imagery, boolean operations enable us to subtract, add or create an intersection between two objects. in this series i subtract a sphere from a landscape...a sculpture completes the image by representing the missing part. the sum of the image and the sculpture forms the landscape in its entirety." see more here.

erik van der weijde




240 houses in 16 settlements, built in nazi germany between 1933-45, photographed by erik van der weijde in the spring of 2008. as he explains "siedlung is the german word for neighbourhood or settlement. in nazi germany before WWII a lot of siedlungen were built in order to offer a house to every working class NSDAP-member. this siedlungpolitik was a powerful propaganda tool to submit the working class to the state as well as to provide living space for nazis. the building and distribution of tens of thousands of those houses were carefully controlled by the party. the often regional style in which the houses were built had to provide a heimat (homeland)-feeling to the inhabitants and the uniform character of these settlements were to bring a feeling of unity amongst the germans." see more here. the book version is available through the great independent art publisher roma publications.
