Born in 1978 in Middelrode, The Netherlands, Marijn van Kreij lives and works in Amsterdam. Van Kreij uses a range of media, including drawing, sculpture and video. Central to his practice is an idiosyncratic process of appropriation, repetition and copy, made manifest through various devices, including the staging of ready-mades. Van Kreij’s pieces often borrow lyrics from pop songs or re-visit historical works of art. Drawings, such as “Untitled (Styles, Crews, Flows, Beats) #1, #2” (2007), first appear as absent-minded doodles where text, marks and images coexist on the same page. But through a characteristic process of doubling, whereby van Kreij copies his own drawings, the chaotic compositions’ calculated effect is revealed as a complex anarchical poetics built on the free interplay of textual and visual signs.
Marijn van Kreij is represented by Galerie Paul Andriesse,
Amsterdam and Loraini Alimantiri/Gazonrouge, Athens.
