Re-View nowadays & upcoming

A few years after the start Re-View turned out to be more and more intrinsic part of the process to create new works by re-view-ing my own drawings, paintings and photoworks I've made before or even long ago. Less or no need to post these works here, because they were already on view, live in shows and/or at my website or social media pages.

One of the reasons why I started Re-View in 2012 was that I just like the speed and intuitive thinking freedom of freehand drawing on a digital tablet.

After an artist-in-residency and solo in 2018 and moving to a new studio in 2019, I realised that besides going on with works on paper and tapedrawings (both of them grow from a mix of 'real' and digital drawings), I want to make also purely digital drawings and visual notes on art again.

About Re-View

Re-View is an initiative of Yvonne van den Herik, set up to provide a platform for the visual notes on art, she likes to draw.

Re-View is about paying really close attention to observing artworks and about freely reflecting and improvising on artworks in a purely visual and abstract way. 'Visual spatial thinking' and 'intuitive thinking' are keywords. Re-View is also part of a dream full of artworks (and music and dance and so on) mutually inspiring and moving one another.

At first all drawings were made on a digital tablet, freehand, with a pressure sensitive pen. That actually was one of the reasons why I started this blog. Later on it varies as specified per post.

Re-View archives

Feb 2011 Van den Herik started Re-View as webserie at Tubelight.nl. This first stage of Re-View aimed at exploring review potentials as well as art qualities of visual notes on art. As initiator, curator/coordinator and (co)editor, she invited other artists and designers to join the experiment and contribute to the webserie weekly.

Since May 2012, in a follow-up and second stage, Re-View will focus on the re-view artwork of Yvonne van den Herik herself. Independency as well as 'free' web format are needed to further develop and go into the Re-View concept.
