Stephen Wiltshire draws Rome from memory.
Stephen Wiltshire is a British man who was diagnosed as autistic when he was a child. He’s also been noted for his exacting memory, which allows him to recreate [in drawings] vast scenes he sees only once. This video shows his 16-foot-panorama of Rome after taking one helicopter ride above the city.
Baptiste Debombourg, ‘Codes Article’ (2004)
The furniture has been destroyed with an axe and reconstructed after that. It was brand new, standard, cheap, and impersonal before being destroyed. Afterwards it reflects the frustration, guilt and possible repentance of the individual in relation to serially produced culture.

Saturday April 3, Galerie Gallery: Opening of the exhibition by Nikki Koole. Pictures of the opening here!
Nikki Koole, ‘Neukmannetjes’ (2005)
An application that generates a simplified version of the game of seduction..
It starts with two babies, one male, one female. Once adults, they wander around the screen until they bump into eachother. They then have intercourse, after which the male leaves and the woman gives birth. Her baby will grow up, and enter the game.. This is repeated until the screen is fully filled with inhabitants, when everything collapses and the process starts over.
Nikki Koole will be presenting new works at Galerie Gallery tomorrow, Saturday the 3rd of April. You are welcome to join our festivities from 18.30hrs.
Last Sunday saw the opening of the brand new initiative Greylight Projects in Hoensbroek. The first exhibition there was ‘Sifres’, with work by Wouter Huis, Wineke Gartz, Thomas Bakker, Laurent Malherbe and Simon Kentgens.
