Video 3D Pen object by Ruud Janssen

New object made with the 3D pen on 7 till 9 October 2016. I used 4 colors ABS plastics to create this larger object. A video is made to show how it looks from different angles. It is an abstract work that is still in progress. So after adding some minor details it will be ready and will get a title too. Not sure yet.

Exhibition at the Bickelmuseum

Exhibition at the Bickelmuseum August – September 2010. Videofragments of the room and works by Karl Bickel and Hans-Ruedi Fricker. Documented by Ruud Janssen and Litsa Spathi. The room at the Bickelmuseum was constructed with 9 square rooms in which each selections of works. The works couldn’t be seen outside the boxes. The exhibition was a beautiful surprise. Outside the boxes there were some selections of Hans-Ruedi’s famous shields. Also a reading table with quite unique books from the world of artistamps.
