Horn is best known for introducing the personal to minimalist sculpture. Horn’s photographs function somewhere between empirical record and various kinds of repetition of that record. For her, the camera is more than simply a means of transcribing the surface detail and texture of things.

‘Airmail from Venice’ is a series of prints coming from unexposed 4″ x 5″ negatives sent by airmail from Venice to Amsterdam in September 2000.
I was on holidays in Venice for a week. Every day I sent a letter to my address in Amsterdam where I used to live at the time.
Each negative had an exposure time of three to four days. After the delivery the result of the mailing by air came out when the
prints were developed in the dark room.
says Myne Søe-Pedersen.

The signature is done with ballpoint at the lower part of the postcard. From a certain angle when the ink reflects the light one clearly detects the signature. This rather ephemeral handwriting makes the image undisturbed, and therefore very powerful.

This hand out is meant as an instruction for experiencing phosphenes created by putting pressure on one’s eye lids. As a result the eyeballs under pressure will show “colored and glittering geometric patterns on the retina”, as the label on the reverse tells.

In the eighty’s Ger van Elk started to combine photographic illusion and reality with the Dutch 17th centuary art history, such as painted landscapes, still lives, portraits and animals. In his work ‘Western Stylemasters’ the standing artist looks at himself sitting, as such portrayed as part of a group of samplers as in Rembrandt’s paintings having the task to certify textiles.

The auction raised £ 111 million ($198 million), breaking Hirst’s own record with £ 10.3 million for The Golden Calf, an animal with 18-carat gold horns and hooves, preserved in formaldehyde. Nowadays, and already for years, he owns Other Criteria a commercial company publishing prints, editions and books by himself in the first place and established artists.
