Jennifer Tee

Accept and submit unreservedly or walk away: these are the choices that Jennifer Tee's work presents to its viewers. With an "all-over" approach, the Dutch-born artist draws from a variety of disciplines and installations that integrate video, objects, photographs, and text. Tee often uses autobiographic material in her work. In her "Down the Chimney" exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, she displayed a video based on stories that her closest family members had kept to themselves--stories that they never wanted to tell her. This book provides insight into this personal and autobiographical body of work, and engages its readers in the narration of worlds created within.

Sara van der Heide

Julia van Ooststroom

As one essay here places the rising young Dutch artist Sara van der Heide and her work, she "is a painter of the visual culture, an artist who has seen much more in the form of newspaper photos, television images and films than she has experienced firsthand. With obvious pleasure she creates a world of painting that enables viewers to see in a chaos of different ways. A very promising sketch, an indescribable blend of colors, an unexpected texture after the paint is wiped away." Penumbra offers readers van der Heide's expressive and unabashedly luscious drawings and paintings, including many in egg tempera and other old-school techniques, and examines her comparatively contemporary subjects, from terror to pop culture.
