Angelika Hasse (Neunkirchen 1960) has lived in the Netherlands for 28 years.

Born and raised in the German Saarland, she completed studies of graphic design at the Fachhochschule in Mainz. She then moved to The Hague, where she worked as a graphic designer.

Following her heart, she chose to become an artist and took lessons at the Free Academy.

Given her years of experience in creating a combination of text and form on assignment, it is not surprising that text fragments appear in her work.

She is partly inspired by advertisements and commercials in magazines to which her parents subscribed. She thus playfully keeps in touch with her German background and language and pays tribute to the stylish design from the fifties and sixties, when craftsmanship had not yet been taken over by the computer...

The publication 'jaune, geel, gelb, yellow. Monochrome' discusses the failure, collapse and historicization of the modernist ideals espoused by Theo van Doesburg, set against the current political backdrop of mass protest. It brings together writers from a variety of fields who reflect on the legacy and failures of modernism from the perspective of their individual backgrounds and expertise.

Edited by Lisa Bakker and Eleonoor Jap Sam. With text contributions by (poet) Maria Barnas, (poet) I.K...

As a painting leaves the artist’s workshop it becomes a focus of various sentiments and thoughts .... It will be admired or disliked, it will be analyzed on technical grounds and commented upon.

It took a long time for this process to become visible. This study examines some examples of the manner in which critical reactions began to manifest themselves in an age in which writing about works of art was leaving the tradition of ex cathedra declarations. The views of three art lovers from that...

Effigy hanging and burning, a specific theatrical form of political protest, has become increasingly visible in the news media, particularly in protests against United States military operations in Afghanistan and Iraq, in US domestic politics, and in the Arab Spring. Taking these events as points of departure, Göttke investigates the conditions of this visual genre of protest, its roots and genealogies in a number of countries, its aesthetics and politics.

Effigy protests communicate comm...

An observatory is a place for the observation of the universe. The artists of Observatorium, however, cast their gaze upon the inhabited world. All over the planet, they have created works of art that are not only to look at, but also to enter, observe and reflect from. Over the past 30 years, Observatorium produced an internationally significant body of work, from the sculpture Zandwacht (Sand Watch) in the Port of Rotterdam to Dwelling in Seclusion, a work of art devoted to solitude in New ...

Imagine only two artists and one patron involved in the world-famous Ghent Altarpiece. Albeit this gives rise to fake information, which induces unacceptable and unreasonable conclusions.

The author proceeds through the WYSIWYG method. This proves efficiently as the way of painting is very accurate, precise, and honest. In the end, the historical checks and balances reveal an acceptable story of a dynamic artists' community.
