Real Time: Sweepers Clock, Maarten Baas, 2010, Art Institute of Chicago: Architecture and Design

Laced with dry wit and humor, the Sweepers Clock is arguably the most labor-intensive of Dutch designer Maarten Baas’s 2009 series of timepieces. As the name suggests, the clock features two people with brooms pushing lines of debris in real time to form minute and hour hands. This work draws our attention to how the perception of time is dictated by regularly occurring activities, as well as to the fruitlessness of hard labor. Funds provided by the Architecture & Design Society Size: N/A Medium: Digital Video (Blu-ray format)

Lahti’s beautiful modern art gallery, Malva, is showing Hide and Seek (Piiloleikki) a new exhibition by the Dutch artist and designer Maarten Baas, whose playful but profound works poke satirical and often surrealistic fun at modern society’s obsessions with social media and cult of the self. He puts us in our place and makes as laugh at ourselves and our priorities. Welcome to the modern world, he says, and all its funfair chaos. #finlandia #suomi ##maartenbaas #artgalleries #malva #lähti #exhibitions (at Lahden visuaalisten taiteiden museo Malva) https://www.instagram.com/p/CiC7gD9K70J/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Love this clock from Maarten Baas! The Real Time series are 12-hour films of performances indicating the time. With Real Time, Baas combines theatre, art, film and design in a series of new clock designs.
