Checking Out. Exhibition-view at @stedelijk_museum_breda Polaroids. 2 times 10.29 cm x 10.15 cm , framed behind art-glass Edition of 1 ( unique piece ). 2018. . . “You take somebody home, you rip each others’ clothe off, and have a fantastic night together – but they won’t put your clothes back on. That’s something you do alone.” . According to science, our happiness largely depends on seven neurotranmitters in our brain. These signalling agents, which make us feel good, are created in a variety of ways, for example during sex, whilst exercising or by eating chocolate. This knowledge forms an important starting point for the work of Maurice Nuiten. In the search for happiness, artist have no better means at their disposal than the human body, in his view. During his performances, photos. films, installations and text, he often uses his own body to make a visual translation of his desire for happiness. For Nuiten , happiness is closely linked to intimacy and vulnerability. His naked body, often manoeuvered into surrealistic poses, is exposed to the viewers’ subjective gaze. Checking Out (2018), two polaroid that playfully refer to the party scene, represent an opportunity to temporarily escape everyday reality. . #dialoge #analogue #mauricenuiten #life #high #checkingout #byefelica #gonefishing #raketstart #stedelijkmuseum #breda #stedelijkmuseumbreda #contemporaryart #polaroid #mertensframes #josildadaconceicaogallery (bij Stedelijk Museum Breda) https://www.instagram.com/p/B38w4PcFvsY/?igshid=i9cmtevx5dpl

The Party Would Never Stop. Exhibition-view at @stedelijk_museum_breda. Videoperformance. Video 9:51. Size Variable. Edition 3 2019. . . The Party Would Never Stop (2019) In this film Nuiten sits on the floor naked, with is head and arms stuck into a large black balloon. The balloon deflates extremely slowly. The film is an ironic interpretation of a ‘pity party’: a moment of self-pity, as the last guest at a party gets lost in an exhausting lament about life. With this work, Nuiten shows that difficult moments, when happiness is hard to find, are sometimes worth showing the most. . . #pityparty #videoperformance #lament #whitepicketfence #museumexhibition #balloon #stedelijkmuseum #museum #breda #raketstart #discomfort #mauricenuiten #contemporaryart #visualart (bij Stedelijk Museum Breda) https://www.instagram.com/p/B375FC4FERm/?igshid=1jv4ov5j8kupz
