Eelco Brand

Still from: Eelco Brand, Amovi, 2011, 3D computer animation, loop
A 3D-computer animation provides the means to continue where a painting leaves off. A painting is static and cannot generate sound. Yet there are also considerable similarities. The image in both 3D-modelling and painting is completely constructed. There is also optical illusion. Both paint and electric light projection serve the same purpose: an image within a frame that suggests that this image extends beyond the frame’s boundaries.

Eelco Brand is not interested in a personal, formal language; rather he draws on elements such as the infinite diversity of nature. He is fascinated with the mimetic relation to scenes of nature that can be achieved by means of a medium that provides such practical refinement and potential as 3D-modelling.

"The galleries [DAM]Berlin and [DAM]Cologne are parts of an overall concept of imparting art that is exclusively dedicated to the influence of the computer and the digital in art and society. We are especially interested in the contextual examination of this media and/or new artistic forms. Since 2003, we have presented in our gallery in Berlin-Mitte young contemporary positions as well as pioneers in the field of digital media, generating a broad range of results.

Further components of the [DAM] project are the online-museum www.dam.org, on the web since 2000, and the d.velop digital art award [ddaa] www.ddaa-online.org, which we have given since 2005. In 2010, our book "The World of Digital Art" (hardcover incl. DVD) was launched, an introductory book featuring numerous images - available in 5 languages."
