Maps of You a lonelyfingers project at M HKA Antwerp 6 Aug until 16 Oct 2016 -opening on the 13th of Oct.-
Today when someone asks artists for a biography or CV, we submit without hesitation chronologically ordered lists of exhibitions, publications and awards. This is a routine, a sort of agreement that like any other format tries to simplify the reading and somehow it grants standardisation. But can this standard tell us how time spent in certain places has affected our work? Can we understand the transformative power of traveling from reading our CV?…

The abducted photo by Diango Hernández This text accompanies the lonelyifngers exhibition Apparently Yours
The history of lies is far more interesting than the history of truths. What would happen if one day all lies become the new truths? Unfortunately this is neither a supposition nor a prediction, in fact it seems to be our present…

“To the promise” by Timotheus Vermeulen This text accompanies the lonelyifngers experience Apparently Yours
The model invoked by Apparently Yours appraises the joy of the find, of the discovery. I remember well Anne and Diango’s joy when they found the pictures. They were elated. Sure, their elation stemmed in part from the thought they may have found canonical art historical documents. But they were also exhilarated because these collages, regardless of their relational worth, triggered a response in them…

Thank you Mr. Fukuyama but we don’t want to go there In response to Mr. Francis Fukuyama's speech at Metamodernism - The return of History
The first speaker of the day was Francis Fukuyama, the well-known American political scientist and author of The End of History and the Last Man (1992). Everybody was looking forward to hear Mr. Fukuyama’s speech; I was careful with my excitement but very curious to hear the voice of an authentic modernist. Surprisingly Mr. Fukuyama started his speech saying that Nigeria wants to be like Denmark and consequently explained why Nigeria can’t be like Denmark…

AICA Best Special Exhibition of 2013 To "lonelyfingers-Konversationsstücke" at Museum Abteiberg
What makes an exhibition special? Aren’t all exhibitions special in one way or another? The exhibition lonelyfingers – Konversationsstücke (Conversation Pieces), shown between March 17th and June 2nd, 2013 at the Museum Abteiberg, Mönchengladbach, was exceptional precisely because it did not feature the presentation of artworks in the traditional sense. The history: In 2012, Diango…
