Landscape collages by Jan Dibbets
Jan Dibbets was born in Weert, Holland in 1941. He trained as an art teacher at the Tillburg Academy, before studying painting in Eindhoven between 1960-63. In 1967, he studied at St Martin’s College, London where his contemporaries included Richard Long and Gilbert & George. He currently lives and works in Amsterdam.
In 1967 Dibbets was one of the first artists to recognise large-scale colour photography as a medium in its own right. He initially used the camera to create a dialogue between nature and cool geometrical design creating the seminal series of Perpsective Corrections before moving on to man-made structures such as in Colour Studies. Since then he has incorporated landscape, cupolas, windows and water into his highly individual body of work. via

The Sound Chair by Plummer Fernandez: A soundwave that when plotted on a volume, frequency time graph gives the shape of a chair. I created and tested 719 different sounds until reaching the current version. The aesthetic of soundwaves becomes the aesthetic of the chair. The result is a product with dual existence as both a “sound” & a “chair”.
