DRAWINGS OF TREES, ROCKS AND HERMITS

ON ALL THE BREADCRUMBS ON THE ROAD TOWARDS THE LARGE DRAWINGS

ROCK CAVES AND TREE HOLLOWS INHABITED BY HERMITS

The series of large drawings show big trees rooted in rocks. Rock caves and tree hollows are inhabited by hermits surrounded by their few and favourite belongings. They are inspired by a fascination for 15th, 16th century engravings of woodlands,  the big oak trees in the Allier, hermits, rocks and trees, bûtoh dansers, a priest in Indonesia, my brother and the drawings of treehuts by my art school kids.

De Bloembank is een sculpturale bank voor het schoolplein van de onderbouw die een zitplaats biedt en een plek voor ontmoeten, spel en tot rust komen. De besloten vorm van de bank roept het idee op opgenomen te worden in een omarming, en geeft zo een gevoel van rust en geborgenheid.

DEPOT work in progress

A video and some shots of the display cases: all thirteen display cases have now been installed in the heart of The Depot. Still a bit dusty, accessible glass floors are covered for the time being.

The next months Marieke van Diemen will design the interior for each display case, following the content of the exhibited. The interior will be adaptable for every new presentation in the coming years. Flexible, magnetic LED-light sources will not only emphasise the exhibits but also the enormous volumes of the display cases.©️marieke van diemen

PLAY MODULES

AnneMarie van Splunter

One of the most beautiful play area designs ever: the sculptural play area for children at Dowse Art Museum The play modules are a series of undulating concrete elements, that have been put together to form an elongated play area.

A multitude of ways to interact with it- as well as the modules enabling a number of ways for configuring shapes.The meandering shape evokes a river, or Gaudi’s exuberant benches in Barcelona.

swan embroidery

In the embroidered sceneries of the swan series the same theme has been developed in all its possible patterns.

The theatrical installations, hence the word sceneries, refer to a sleepy world. Room sized embroidery installations like tents and pillows make up an oasis in white cotton. Long pieces of fabric are suspended in space, winding in and out rooms or cascading from windows .

The MAZE by Marieke van Diemen

WORK in PROGRESS

The Maze by Marieke van Diemen, In the Atrium of Depot Boijmans van Beuningen, Rotterdam

Absolutely fabulous and vertiginous!

The maze consists of 13 gigantic display cases in the heart of Depot. A wondrous and spectaculair labyrinth in the style of Piranesi.

The Depot is designed by MVRDV. A team of Marieke van Diemen and MVRDV is responsible for the design of 3D Maze.

MVRDV partnered with John Körmeling and Marieke van Diemen to develop the entrance and atrium while Concrete provided the interior design of the rooftop restaurant. Pipilotti Rist was contracted to design an installation for the building. MTD Landscape Architects assisted in designing the forest.

International Women’s Day

Today is International Women’s Day!⁠ ⁠ This beautiful still-life painting is by Dutch artist Rachel Ruysch - one of few women artists to feature in our Dutch Still Life collection of over 90 paintings. Ruysch was born in 1664, and became one of the most famous female artists of the Dutch Golden Age. She had a long and successful career as an artist, painting from the age of 15 to 83, and producing over 250 works. In 1699, when her family moved to the Hague, she was the first woman to be offered membership in the Confrerie Pictura - an academic club of artists. ⁠ ⁠ Through the lens of art history, Ruysch is considered one of the best Dutch still life artists of all time, with no 18th-century artists matching her skill.  She had a remarkable understanding of drawing and painting techniques, and paid extensive attention to detail. Ruysch’s style of painting could be seen as an early form of ‘Photoshopping’ - instead of painting life as it was, she painted life in a curated way to create the most perfect composition and image. ⁠ ⁠ A  Forest Floor Still Life of Flowers, 1679-1750. Oil on canvas. ⁠

Annemarie’s work is either an ephemeral installation inside (e.g. an evaporating water landscape, plinths of sugar) or sculptural work in the public realm (e.g. playground, skating rink, park bench, fences, commissioned, among others, by the Dowse Art Museum in New Zealand and the Dutch Government Buildings Agency)
