Research & Artists

Pochoir World (NL)

Paul Zwartkruis collected paintings of modern and contemporary artists. Later on, he started to collect lithographs, etchings and woodcuts and bought a book about the School of Paris (École de Paris), in which an international group of artists such as Picasso, Matisse, Braque, Laurencin, Delaunay, Chagall and others were described.

These artists from the first half of the 20th century had his special interest. Back in the nineties, Paul stumbled upon a book about Matisse, the book disclosed 5 colorful (visual art) stencils, that turned out to be pochoirs. Pochoirs are handmade reproductions of artwork, produced in Parisian ateliers by female staff members during the period 1920-1960. A very costly, labor-intensive technique.

Images To Live By (AU)

I’m a university academic, based in Melbourne, Australia. I research and teach about issues at the intersection of law, crime and culture. In recent years, that has included film, photography, art in the street and art in galleries. I’m simultaneously finishing a book on the spectatorship of violence in cinema, and starting a three year research project on street art in cities such as Melbourne, New York, London, Amsterdam, Sao Paulo, Paris and Berlin.
