MINDMAPPING [2] JAN ROTHUIZEN [1]
Jan Rothuizen is an Amsterdam based artist. I came across "his" room of Cohen, which was a part of the 'Soft Atlas of Amsterdam' in a magazine stand on his site and discovered the project "Somewhere over the Rainbow". Here he makes a self-portrait without self, which consists of photographs collected from men. All pictures have been chosen because it is in some way recognizable. Not only in the present but also in elements of the past and even images which he himself recognized as possible future looks. "
In an exhibition the photographs were exhibited in chronological order, so they start forming an imaginary life. It begins with a baby and ends with an old man.
A good assignment for starting art students, I reckon...
