Inside the building, close to the entrance, was more of his work on display in the exhibition space.<\/p>\n<p>It is quite intelligent and modern to display art in the entrance hall of an institute where creativity is the main focus \u2013 as is the case with architecture, or rather it should be. This stimulates a dialogue between the mutual influences of the creative professions. This is instead of the increasingly oppressive isolation that is caused by the general belief in specialisation, from which we are now gradually (thankfully) struggling away from.<\/p>\n<p>The work that stood outside, an angular, constructive and open piece of protective clothing, is somewhere between isolation and openness, polarisation and reconciliation, fear and security. As is sometimes the way in the animal kingdom: protect yourself by scaring off others. For us in the Netherlands such issues are much lower on the agenda, or even not at all, but in Mexico there is arbitrariness and fear, and violence is the order of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Daniel is our <em>artist-in-residence<\/em> and will create a sculpture during his time in the gallery. The creation process will form an important component of the exhibition, and visitors can follow this work-in-progress in the gallery. The opening is on 23 April. We have also had several canvasses shipped over from Mexico that make the exhibition equally as powerful as I experienced it in Monterrey and perhaps even more beautiful, as the <em>making of<\/em> is now an integral component of the exhibition.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Please click the <a href=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/product\/daniel-ruanova\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">following link<\/a> for more information and photographs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>For the most recent selection of art works in the Van Abbevitrine, please click the <a href=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/product\/daniel-ruanova-translocating-borders\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">following link<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17693\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R0016365.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"765\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R0016365.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R0016365-275x300.jpg 275w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17697\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R00163701.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"688\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R00163701.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R00163701-300x295.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17699\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R0016369.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"806\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R0016369.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R0016369-261x300.jpg 261w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17701\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R00163771.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R00163771.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/R00163771-300x183.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-17727\" src=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC_0016.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"464\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC_0016.jpg 700w, https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/03\/DSC_0016-300x199.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 700px) 100vw, 700px\" \/><br \/>Photograph: Anderson Araujo<\/p>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pietheineek.nl\/en\/blog\">&lt;&lt; back to blog posts<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>17-03-2017 When I paid a flying visit to the University of Architecture in Monterrey, Mexico for a lecture over a year ago, an artwork by the Mexican artist Daniel Ruanova stood outside the entrance to the beautiful building designed by the Japanese architect Tadao Ando >><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":17702,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"advgb_blocks_editor_width":"","advgb_blocks_columns_visual_guide":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[176,188,146],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17708","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-blog","category-exhibition"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Daniel Ruanova - Translocating Borders - 23th of April - 2nd of July &#8226; PIET HEIN EEK<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Piet Hein Eek (1967) graduated from the Design Academy in Eindhoven (NL) in 1990 with his classic scrap wood cupboard.
