In 1987 Kristjan Gudmundsson started to make use of graphite on paper without using graphite as a traditional technique to draw with.

17 x 15 x 5 cm
16 mm celluloid, film ‘Skytypers’, wood, paint, metal
series of ca 30 unique pins, hand-made by the artist

On behalf of Eye on Art – Artists Talk at Eye in Amsterdam on 11 March 2025, 30 speakers were invited to throw a light on each of the presented film loops. In gratitude for the personal lectures – one and a half minute each – of technicians, experts and friends, Marijke presented them with a pin. The used 16 mm celluloid clipping is taken from her film “Skytypers”. A tiny orange ball at the end of the gold spray painted pin refers to a series of film loops on oranges she is working on now.

This book has sculptural characteristics, due to its concept and heavy weight. The 200 pages of the book correspond to the total surface of Barnett Newman’s painting ‘Who is Afraid of Yellow, Red and Blue I’ (1966), oil paint on canvas measuring 190 x 122 cm. It includes the exact ratio of the three colors of the painting. When you hold this book in your hands, you have the entire surface of the canvas in your hands.
