On one of the tags one can read; ‘John M Armleder combines an extraordinary visual culture with delegation principles and chance procedures. This tension between mastery and the effects of randomness stretches his work from abstraction to appropriation.

Right from the sixties and seventies John M Armleder has made use of found objects integrated in his art. From his Furniture Sculptures to cat beds bought at a supermarket and hung as estranged fur objects on the wall of a gallery. Lately, he pushed the boundaries by making designs for Wallpapers by Artists, Puma bags, Vilebrequin’s swimwear like shorts and bowling shirts. Here an umbrella for We Do Not Work Alone has been provided with a stylised splash design. KvG

“A six metre long sculpture” is a hybride artist’s book, due to the addition of an essay by Hans Theys on the last 12 pages. For an artist’s book, that is a considerable part contributed by a third party.
The first part of the booklet starting on the couver depicts empty pages with a continuous red and blue scribbling at the bottom of each page. The total length is six meters, hence the sudden cut-off by means of a vertical line at the back of the booklet.

…That same intensity of being addressed I felt when I saw the cassette tape of Aernout Mik in 1992. Especially the accompanying title “Object to leave behind in trains” lifted me an inch off the ground. A wonderful purifying plan: get rid of objects by letting others find them.”
Kees van Gelder, in catalogue ‘When artists form ideas’, 2021, Parts Project, The Hague, Netherlands.
‘The idea is that the owner of “Object to leave behind in trains” leaves this item in a train’. Talk with Arnout Mik in Bunnik (NL) on 22 March 2024.
“Miks beelden zijn vaak nogal hermetisch waardoor ze iets zelfingenomens krijgen, maar bij dit werk is dat minder het geval. Op en onder een tafel staan een groot aantal voorwerpen: een enorm blik tonijn, een glazen potje met afgeknipte nagels, een papieren zak met een blikje Budweiser-bier. De titel maakt dat je het beeld gemakkelijk voor je ziet: het nagelpotje staande op het koffieplankje naast het raam – wie zou dat hebben achtergelaten en waarom? De groene legertas vol flessen azijn tegenover je op de lege bank in de trein naar Schiphol.” Hans den Hartog Jager, ‘De Utrechtse School’, NRC Handelsblad, 14 februari 1997.
