Since 1993, van Eeden has created thousands of small-format charcoal and pencil drawings on paper, based on motifs taken from magazines, books, or topographical atlases dated from before the year of his birth. The resulting panorama, stretching from 1920 to 1965, is a record of the artist’s obsession with reconstructing a history in which he himself did not participate. Van Eeden calls his life’s work the \u003cI\u003eEncyclopedia of my Death,\u003c\/I\u003e a title that is only contradictory at first glance: the time before his birth is as important to the artist as the time after his death—a state of total absence.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003eThis book airs the mystery surrounding the figure of \u003cI\u003eCelia\u003c\/I\u003e, the protagonist in van Eeden’s latest cycle of works, and also features a representative selection of early drawings.\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003cBR\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 14pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Kunstverein Hannover, July 1–August 20, 2006 \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: 'Lucida Console'; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e·\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e Museum Dhondt-Dhaenens, Deurle,\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-GB style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB\"\u003e\u003cSPAN style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10.5pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.0pt\"\u003eDecember 10, 2006–January 21, 2007\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44874873504008,"sku":"9783775718493","price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775718493_0d6fd23e-99dd-4f92-b7a4-fe6d2f02163c.jpg?v=1744114379","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15636-marcel-van-eeden","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
