Snake - Katja Weitering; Gean Moreno

Michael Tedja in het COBRA museum

KORTE INHOUD

SNAKE brings the public into contact with Tedja's energy and crystallised concepts. Tedja's use of words and images within a single surface, his engagement with the world as conveyed in his work, and the way in which his expressionist visual language is captured in a rigorous and conceptual framework of thought, are all elements that enjoy full play within the context of the Cobra Museum. In one of his new series of works, Tedja criticises the manner of displaying and appropriating ethnographic objects in the Western cultural world. This demonstrates a certain kinship, certainly in view of the 'versatile primitivism' of the Cobra movement. Moreover, it constitutes an astute observation on contemporary discussions. Exhibition: COBRA Museum of Modern Art, Amstelveen, The Netherlands (02.02.-26.05.2013).
