Exhibition in the gallery

Johan Deumens Gallery presents 'Memory Traces' by Cary Markerink.
Book Launch and exhibition on friday March 5th from 6 - 9 pm in the Gallery, Donkere Spaarne 32 Haarlem.
At 6 pm Hans Aarsman will be in conversation with Cary Markerink.





Memory Traces is a recent publication, in which Markerink relates to notions about landscape, culture, history and memory. Memory Traces is an unconventional photo-book, composed to be an experience, in which a selection of landscape photographs are combined with a multi-layered range of texts including exerpts from traveloques, 'written photographs' and a short story situated in the art-world which, among other things, deals with 'The Artification of Photography' and 'The End of Silver-based Photography'.
The publication consists of the book Memory Traces and two smaller books; Höffding Step and Dark Star. Presented in a special box. The large format photographs were made in Sarajevo; Hiroshima and Nagasaki; Berlin, Bitterfeld-Wolfen and Ronneburg; Bikini Islands and Nam Island; Chernobyl; Khe San and My Lai.
