2. Rachel Hulin





"Shower Flight." Rachel Hulin is a photographer and writer based in Providence, R.I., and New York City. "Flying Baby" grew out of her wish to keep her art going amid the demands of rearing her son, Henry, who is 13 months old. When he was 6 months, she said, "We'd lift him up, and he'd squeal with delight. I thought, What if I photographed him and removed the grown-up?" (Rachel Hulin)

8. Frieke Janssens







Titled “The beauty of an ugly addiction”, photographer Frieke Janssens confronts viewers with questions about the general smoking ban introduced in Belgium some months ago. Surrealistic, melancholic and theatrical but especially controversial pictures of smoking kids are used to visualise the contradiction of the unhealthy cigarette and the immense attraction of smoking.

The children, aged four to nine, are shameless posing while enjoying their cigarette or cigarillo. So why kids? By portraying adults as children all the attention went to the smoking. An adult would draw to much attention to the portrayed person. Thus these portraits evoke question such as: is the smoking ban the right way to get rid of an absurd addiction and are smokers treated like little kids who can’t make the difference between good and bad? While Frieke doesn’t give answers, the portraits are strong enough to start your thinking process!

Frieke got the idea after seeing a youtube movie in which a two year old Indonesian boy smokes up to 40 cigarettes a day. It struck her that the reactions on this youthfull smoker were culturally stipulated: Americans reacted shocked while Indonesians and the parents of the little boy saw the smoking habit as something normal.

7. Sylvie Zijlmans






About:


"Over the last five years Sylvie Zijlmans has created photo works of an intimate world in which something unspeakable has taken place. Mysterious events that are certainly possible but highly improbable. Bacteria are spat back and forth across the table. Smoke rises from mugs, glasses and bottles. The people in these images have witnessed something terrifying. They confront us menacingly, like giants. Though greatly enlarged these photo works are extremely sharp. In combination with the method of presentation - sometimes merely a loosely suspended backlit transparency - this sharpness is confronting and alienating. Zijlmans' oeuvre is contentious, experimental, and creative. it teems with the ideas and multiple associations.

Sylvie Zijlmans' extraordinary visual eloquence has led to her being invited to participation Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen's H&F Mecenaat, a patronage program that allows the museum to collect and exhibit the work of internationally important contemporary artists. I would like to thank the artist for her commitment to this project. The museum is greatly indebted to its patron Han Nefkens who has made both the exhibition and publication possible through his financial support".
