Working with Joris

POSTED IN Day to day 5.10.2009

This summer I did two days of shooting with Joris Rademaker. He is a visual artist from the Netherlands, living in Akureyri. He also curates his own gallery (Gallery +). Our assignment was to make digital copies of Joris’ work for a catalogue published this fall by the Akureyri Art Museum. Joris will then exhibit his work dating from the 1980’s to newly made pieces.

We photographed almost two hundred different paintings and sculptures amongst dozens of drawings.

Joris’ work was sometimes quite challenging to represent properly, especially the very subtle tones of some of his paintings, the crazy colours of others and the feeling of the three dimensional art. I think we managed ok though, and we really had a good time working together.

I show you guys some of my favorites from the two days. The art is done by Joris Rademaker.
