“LETTERS, MOVEMENT” Lara Captan.

In my world, Arabic letters are made of motions within. 

They embody traces of a long line of master calligraphers’ gestures, thoughts & artistic refinement.

They are inhabited by shifting technologies that reflect the environments in which these changes keep taking place. 

In this exhibition, you will visit fragments of my life, dedicated to playing with elemental systems, to making typefaces that tell stories of, movements.

 

“LETTERS, MOVEMENT” Jérôme Schlomoff.

I saw in the gestures of Lara's writing a whole moving world, so I wanted to make a film of the construction of her Arabic typeface. The result is like a typographic choreography.

“Het Licht, altijd & opnieuw het licht”

 "The light, always & still the light". By Paul Versteeg.

Paul Versteeg is a Dutch painter. When 20 years old, he assisted Marc Chagall for the creation of the ceiling paintings in the Opera Garnier in Paris. He is passionated with the observation of light phenomena. The series of paintings presented for the exhibition depicts a little street in Cabrières d’Aigues that is a village in Lubéron, France. During four years, on a regular basis, Paul has been painting this place under different kinds of lights.

He currently gives drawing and painting lessons in his studio established on a boat moored on the Amstel river, Amsterdam. He also teaches colour theory at the Master program on conservation and restoration of cultural heritage of the University of Amsterdam.

 

"The light, always & still the light". By Jérôme Schlomoff.

For this exhibition, I present a series of photographs taken aboard Paul Verteeg's boat atelier. These images were taken over a period of 4 years and constitute a testimony about the artist.

INVITATION OPEN ATELIER - GUEST ARTISTE HERWOLT van DOORNEN

Jérôme Schlomoff has invited Herwolt van Doornen for a special joint exhibition under the title

"The Angels Series”

Herwolt is active as a graphic artist and designer in Amsterdam since 1977. Through the years he has done many studies in black and white. In this case it's about his so called "Angels" he put out since 2008. Starting with sensitive lines in ink, moving to sharp cuttings in black and white paper, a special series of graphics has grown, from which a selection will be on display at Atelier Schlomoff coming mid December weekend.

Jérôme himself has, since 1993, challenged the tradition of portrait photography by aiming at portraying "Angels". The choice of the models, the quality of the light and the composition of the image together play significant roles for the intensity of the photographs produced. 

 

Herwolt, who graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy as a graphic designer has since contributed to, among others: 

The New Yorker Magazine, the VPRO TV guide, Het Parool Newspaper, Vrij Nederland Magazine, Furore Magazine and De Poezenkrant.
