A B O U T A R T S T A M P . D K
A MAIL ART PROJECT BY STALKE OUT OF SPACE AND SAM JEDIG (FOUNDED IN 2007)
Artstamp.dk was established in 2007, as an alternative art project in relation to more traditional works of art. With Artstamp.dk I wish to both challenge the classical stamp and the frames for the concept of art.

The art stamps are produced in small editions, typically between 50 -3000 stamps and are independent ”miniature works of art”. On the day of publishing, when the art stamps are publicly accessible, they will also exist as ”first day cover” in small editions.

Artstamp.dk is not just about publishing stamps, but also about the function of the stamp. A part of the project is therefore an enquiry about what happens when letters/ mail art with art stamps are sent all over the world, crossing national frontiers. Will philatelists accept them? Will the art world take an interest? Will a third kind of collector, finding this concept interesting, arise? Artstamp.dk questions the reality, we are all part of and take for granted.

LOVE AND PAIN Vu Thi Trang

LIFE IN THE FAST LANE Jes Brinch

BACK SPACE:

Stalke is proud to invite you to the two simultaneous exhibitions by Vu Thi Trang and Jes Brinch.
LOVE AND PAIN is an exhibition of paintings by Vu Thi Trang about women’s situation in Vietnam. The paintings tell stories about violence, abuse, poverty, superstition, prostitution, corruption, and love and pain. Trang's paintings are both very serious and fun at the same time, and all the stories told are based on real life.



LIFE IN THE FAST LANE is a series of marble sculptures by Jes Brinch about the use of cocaine. The sculptures show a rock star, a designer, a ballet dancer, a journalist, a male stripper, a gallerist, two priests and a family on coke. The inspiration for the sculptures comes from astonishment about the fact that the use of cocaine has accelerated and become almost common in the last 10 years. A series of brand new paintings are also presented.

TOPOGRAPHICAL REFLECTIONS

THOMAS BANG


The lozenge shape, which is dominant in the drawings, “Topographical reflections”, appearing on the stamps, emerged initially in Thomas Bang’s drawings from the mid-sixties. Since that time the lozenge image has occasionally re-appeared, primarily in sculpture- and installation contexts and generating various references.

As a result of one of Bang’s recent interests: Egyptian Funerary Portraits from the Roman Period, this image once again crops up in his work. The entire shape of these portrait paintings is roughly that of a lozenge. Bang’s interest focuses on the appearance of the realistic painting style of the mummy portraits (1st and 2nd century AD) as entirely isolated and incongruous images forced upon the context of images of a long standing Egyptian burial tradition.

This severe disruption of context and the near disintegration of image over time which many of the portraits suffered, served as the initial point of departure for this series of drawings appearing on the stamps. The conditions of incongruity and breakdown of image found in these portraits relate to... [ Read all ]
