Wendelien van Oldenborgh
Lives in Rotterdam
Wendelien van Oldenborgh is an artist based in Rotterdam whose practice explores social relations through an investigation of gesture in the public sphere. She often uses the format of a public film shoot, collaborating with participants in different scenarios, to co-produce a script and orientate the work towards its final outcome, which can be film, or other forms of projection. Solo presentations include ‘Lina Bo Bardi: The Didactic Room’, Van Abbemusem, Eindhoven (2010); and group exhibitions and biennials include the 54th Venice Biennial: Illumination (2011). She recently has published a project book ‘Well Respected Man or a Book of Echoes’ in collaboration with Binna Choi, as the first edition of the Electric Palm Tree textbook series.
