For the show ‘Een Goed in de Weg staande Tafel’ (2001) in Galerie van Gelder curator and artist Jack Jaeger placed a wooden zigzagging table of 11 meters long like on a market in the open air. This table filled the gallery space completely. The exhibition ‘A table standing perfectly in the way’ combined objects, photos, printed matter, CD’s and video’s, based on a concept of Jack Jaeger. Tom Friedman was among others invited to participate on this table and he proposed to have a large handmade wooden book display of more than one meter wide put on it for his Dollar Bill print he made in 1999. Instead of hanging the print in a frame on a wall. It is a print of a collage of thirty six one dollar bank notes, cut into tiny square centimeters, and again brought back to one big and visually trembling bank note on which George Washington is showing many noses.

MESCHAC GABA, Untitled, n.d. [1997, box with money safety pins]

MESCHAC GABA, Untitled, 1997
1,2 x 5,9 x 3,9 cm
22 safety pins with banknote particles, plastic box
signed on lid
edition unknown
published by the artist
Collection K. van Gelder, Amsterdam
inv.MGaba 419-pr

In 1997 various items made out of banknotes were offered at one of the annual Open Ateliers of the Rijksakademie in Amsterdam. This transparent box produced in a small edition was offered for sale in the studio of Meschac Gaba. Gold coloured safety pins are stuck into Benin banknote particles in the shape of a tiny circle.

“No matter how determined Gaba’s refusal to speak about colonialism, the art system still tends to categorize his art within that framework. As early as 2001, he made a crystal clear opening statement in the ‘Library of the Museum’: “I use money, because I refuse to use the word colonialism.” The valuation system of money is continuously challenged by this artist. Before his Rijksakademie residency in 1997 and 1998, money as a physical object already was present in his assemblages. Later he turned devaluated banknotes of the Central Bank of the States of West Africa into confetti. The confetti was glued on all kinds of everyday objects. African devaluated coins glued to a simple ring, became desirable jewelry. Banknotes were transformed, by replacing the faces of the usual presidents by the artist’s, his fellows’, Picasso’s, or else his hair sculptures ‘Tresses’, and called them ‘Artist with American (or African) inspiration’. He also mounted the confetti on safety pins as a service in return for people becoming sponsors of his Museum of Contemporary African Art.” Daphne Pappers, 4 April 2014 in Africanah.org

JOHN BALDESSARI, I saw it, 1997

John Baldessari is questioning the conventions of picture-making, among other things. One of the other things is very much related to picture-reading. The work “I saw it” refers obviously to objects one may see passing by in the sky, e.g. UFO’s.

Both volumes come with a Dutch text by the artist about the making of the book and the works in his exhibition in the Frans Hals Museum, Haarlem.

original sketch for the cover of the charcoal drawings of “Dokalucht”:

Dikwijls worden de werken van Voebe de Gruyter begeleid met een tekst. Hier reproduceert zij een dialoog:
“Je moet nog een titel vinden voor het boekje!”
“Ja, maar het moet niet te literair zijn door het bijvoorbeeld naar een van de stukjes te noemen.”

Ik vond het vreselijk moeilijk. Drie dagen later kreeg ik plots een idee. Ik kwam op een vroege avond buiten en rook een sterke, zurige lucht om me heen. Waarschijnlijk een mengsel van uitlaatgassen van auto’s en vrachtwagens en andere stadsapparaten. Vrijwel onmiddellijk wist ik de titel: beelden uit een stad die aan het ontwikkelen zijn, waarvan sommigen al beeld zijn geworden en vorm hebben gekregen in stukjes.
