Self-taught artist Reto Pulfer (b.1981, Bern, Switzerland, lives in Berlin) constructs a kind of ‘total artworks’ combining installation, sculpture, painting, performance, music […]
Tiril Hasselknippe (b.1984, Arendal, Norway), lives in Oslo Incorporating stairs, surfboards, cars, and anchors, the playful sculptures of Tiril Hasselknippe are rooted in a material world that is personal as well as reflective on our digital environment. Inspired by American West Coast Minimalism, where the synthetic and the sublime unite in perfectly abstract aesthetics, the […]
Mandla Reuter (b.1975, Nqutu, South Africa), lives in Berlin Through both subtle and radical interventions of the gallery space, diverting the flow of information and the movement of audiences, Mandla Reuter examines issues like art production, presentation context and exhibition display. Blockades and new passages, time zones and light conditions, compel visitors to experience the […]

Dineo Seshee Bopape (b.1981, Polokwane, South-Africa), lives in Johannesburg Former participant of De Ateliers Dineo Seshee Bopape is a multimedia artist, creating dense sculptural installations in combination with video and sound.

Rezi van Lankveld (b.1973, Almelo, Netherlands), lives in Amsterdam The paintings of Dutch artist Rezi van Lankveld, a regular guest tutor at De Ateliers, sometimes seem to allude to the visible world (landscapes for instance) but remain unnameable and abstract. In an interplay of rhythmic organic form, brooding colour and spatial depth, the small canvases […]
Fredrik Vaerslev (b. 1979, Moss, Norway), lives in Drøbak, Norway The studio practice of Norwegian artist Fredrik Vaerslev ranges from the exposure of work to weather conditions and the outsourcing of production. His paintings, assembled in surprising installations, exemplify conceptual strategies that question the nature of painting today. Recent solo shows were held at Kunsthall […]
Ben Rivers (b.1972, Somerset, UK), lives in London The films of experimental filmmaker Ben Rivers are imaginations of alternative existences in marginal worlds of wilderness. The artist uses near-antique cameras and hand develops the 16 mm film, the materiality of the medium forming part of the narrative. Recent exhibitions took place at The Renaissance Society (Chicago, […]
Michael Dean (b.1977, Newcastle upon Tyne, UK), lives in London The sculptures of Michael Dean, a guest tutor at De Ateliers before, can be understood as physical translations of speech. He creates moulds and casts of words, abstracting and distorting them into an alphabet of human-scale shapes. For his large and complex installations, he uses a variety […]
Andy Holden (b.1982, Blunham, UK), lives in Bedfordshire, UK British artist Andy Holden works in a variety of media, including sculpture, video, and performance, addressing subjects such as diverse as pyramids and birds’ nests.
