UNICOLOR
The gallery combines the work of four artists that consists of one color, or in which a color is very decisive. What is noticeable, when using only one color, is that light plays an important role in the artists’ work.
Unicolor, a group exhibition by Anne Vincent Dijkstra, Bram Hermens, Eliot Allsop and Rick van Strien.
The paintings of Anne Vincent Dijkstra are based on the concept of the sublime; the philosophy that connects the aesthetic with the terrifying. In his paintings he looks for beauty in the relationship of mankind to the incomprehensible reality in which we are living. He paints with oil in just one color, Prussian blue, the color of frozen moments. By limiting his use of color, the focus is on the organization of lines and shapes.

Eliot Allsop drawings are about the ability that people have to self-deception. The world around us is not always what it appears to be. The line between civilization and destruction is thin. With a sense of nostalgia, Allsop shows us a glimpse of the future. A future in which he looks back to the now. Eliot is fascinated by our infinite capacity to destroy ourselves with the world that we create.

For Rick van Strien light in general and color in particular is a powerful phenomenon. Color has a major influence on our collective behavior. Van Strien questions the complexity of the experience of thoughts and emotions. They are reduced to a certain purity through the experience of a color nuance. Rick is guided by the gallery during Talenthub jump!

Bram Hermens (1979), lives and works in Eindhoven and the gallery exhibited his work several times before. Bram Hermen’s work can best be characterized as eclectic. A joining of contemporaneous and historic sources. This starting point opens a near boundless world, that can be brought to expression in differentiating media, on different scales and in a variety of situations, in which the drawing from free hand always remains the basis.
