Van Abbemuseum 2009 – 2010

At the moment there are many exhibitions to see at the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven. Part of the project Play is the exhibition Repetition: Summer Display 1983. The museum remade a display originally made by Rudi Fuchs in 1983. It's very enjoying and interesting to see how beautiful installed this presentation was. Good to see again in the rooms of the old museum many works of my favourite artists like Ulrich Rückriem, Carl Andre, Hamish Fulton, On Kawara, Lawrence Weiner, Sol LeWitt and Jan Dibbets. After a long time Mount Thor by Hamish Fulton is back on the wall and on the top floor there are 4 other works by him.

This show is to be seen until 28 February 2010.

Further there is a beautiful presentation of works by Marcel Broodthaers and a diplay of an installation by Franz Erhard Walther (1. Werksatz).

Lily van der Stokker is ending her series of exhibitions with guests with two wall drawings made by her as a frame around works by Donald Judd and Jan Schoonhoven (see my post of 22 September 2009). Until 28 February 2010.

Until 29 January 2010: JCJ Vanderheyden in the Library of the museum.

Jan Dibbets´series Land And Sea Horizons juxtaposes photographs of dunes and ocean, each mounted in different shapes and formats. The viewer sees simultaneously what would be in front of and what would be behind him in a real landscape. This experience is further stimulated by the fact that although the panels are pieced together in different ways, the horizon line always remains level and constant.
