The artist talk takes place in the solo exhibition Friction by Margaret Lansink at Bildhalle Amsterdam, Willemsparkweg 134. Surrounded by her works, the artist will discuss her working process with Gili Crouwel, art historian and director & founder of The Gallery Club.

The exhibition runs until September 15.

In her exhibition, Margaret Lansink combines her latest series “Friction” with previous works, creating a visual universe that illustrates her masterful handling of varied techniques like platinum palladium prints, collages, liquid light prints and works with gold leaf and charcoal.

Friction embraces the unavoidable changes and impermanence of life as such. Accepting that life is not perfect, that there is beauty in imperfection and to embrace the concept that in all of life’s challenges, beauty is to be found. The artist portrayed professional ballet dancers who had to retire at the age of 35 and connected them to pictures of Death Valley in California emblematic for its timeless beauty.

COMING TO LIGHT – GROUP SHOW
Thematically, there is a strong connection between Lansink’s solo presentation on the upper and the group exhibition COMING TO LIGHT on the lower floor of the gallery: the print techniques, the choice of paper and a deep understanding of craftsmanship influence the works of all artists in terms of content and atmosphere. The way they print is not just a technical approach, but rather a part of the artwork itself.
We are presenting works by Paul Cupido (NL), Mika Horie (JP), Albarrán Cabrera (ES), Emily Bates (UK), Jeffrey Conley (US), Naohiro Ninomiya (JP) and Douglas Mandry (CH).
