Daan den Houter

by

Wednesday 4 June
12.45 – 1.30pm
Cell Block Theatre

Daan den Houter brings multiple, contradictory, subjects together in a single work. Using humour and cynicism he creates alternate perspectives on art and life. Past and ongoing series challenge the boundaries of painting; the Endless Painting aims for eternity but is doomed to fail; his Ice Paintings are in constant transformation; and the Canvas-Repaint is a work that has been over-painted 161 times by 161 artists since 2002. Social sculptures such as the High Tea Table, and a sleeping sculpture for 24 persons, enable a different experience of daily life. And then there are his works about money… He is also involved in community projects such as Gallery de Aanschouw, City in the Making, and Bcademie, a postgraduate institute that coaches recently graduated art students.

Daan den Houter is a multidisciplinary artist from Rotterdam with a 20 year exhibition history in the Netherlands and beyond. Before he graduated from the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague in 2003 he studied Artificial Intelligence.  He is in Australia to participate in the group exhibition The Garden of Time, at Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf, and to collaborate with artists at Warmun Art Centre, Western Australia.

Karatsu ceramicist Yukiko Tsuchiya (@tsuchiyayukiko) and curator Kathryn Hunyor (@artspeople_au) delivered two very special workshops in the teaching studios of the Ceramics Department at the National Art School (NAS), in an exciting collaboration between The Japan Foundation (@jpfsydney), Sydney, the NAS Ceramics Department and the National Art School.
