Hereby a short introduction to
Grant de Munnik
Born: July 16th 1970 at Surrey B.C. Canada.
Education: autodidact.
Themes:
- the construction of
human experience.
- the operation of human
spirit; the determination
of processes of thinking.
Idem for the Persona,
the Self.
- consequences of the notions
of temporary, simultaneous;
as regards the ascertaining
of factuality, further attention
to the notions of parapsychological
and labyrinthical.
Approaches:
- a philosophical one: the implementation of
periodical checkings onto reality that make
aberrations manifest themselves as tranquillizers.
- a psychological one: varifocus naturally, so to speak
the integrated horizontical, vertical and diagonal
view. Porousness, viscosity and focus of the Self;
Its borders in relation to the Non-Self; a pro-active
acquaintance with compressed files in the
Consciousness (to delete and update useful
memories).
- a historical one: how the Self per separate age
is constituted. Checking out the bedsoring mass
of collective recollection on brain damage or
disfunctionality. How a plural cloned perception
of reality (of history) can make reasonable
statements onto the spiritual health of the Self.
The works that can be purchased you can find them in the webshop.
Recent works of Grant de Munnik can be seen at Galerie JMI at Veenoord in The Netherlands.
Expositions
Due to his ongoing allergy for snobs and proletarians, the artist displays his work only on few occasions. The Biennale Internazionale dell' Arte Contemporanea held in 2007 at the Fortezza da Basso at Firenze (Italy) can be named as an example of such. The artist does not give a fuck about numbers of exhibitions or a slick CV, rather spends his time on the content, originality, authenticity and present meaning of his products.
Grant de Munnik is a member of the Dutch Association of Creating Artists (NABK).
