MORE ABOUT THE SHOWS
ANDRÉ DE JONG: ACTS OF DRAWING
Until 10 Dec 2021
André de Jong has been pushing the limits of drawing for over five decades. Now, his work is being examined in the new monograph Acts of Drawing, arranged into thematic chapters that bear the titles of his series, such as “Body-Landscape” and “Folds.” The added references to times of day invite viewers to respond to De Jong’s ways of working, grounded in daily actions. Highlights from these series that have been critically acclaimed in his recent shows in Amsterdam and New York will feature at TMH. The book also provides an introduction to the artist's vast photographic output; De Jong’s photographs, as Jan Postma observes in the book, are “images that seem to identify the moment when reality becomes unrecognizable.”
KOKOU FERDINAND MAKOUVIA: OF THE EARTH
Until 30 Jan 2022
Kokou Ferdinand Makouvia finds inspiration in real and imagined topographies and in his intimate connection to the Mina culture. As works develop, geographical maps lead to layered sculptures, photographic impressions to the physicality of drawings, art materials become tools, and vice versa, seemingly ad infinitum. The show centers on a site-specific, mixed-media installation that includes his signature ceramics in a river-like formation, to be installed in the garden of TMH. It also features his delicate iron pieces Knocks and Knots, 2021, the sprawling motherly sculpture Éviono, 2018, and his unique camera-less impressions that use perforations on paper, On One Day One Touch, Album Lomé-Ville, 2018.
