Persijn Broersen and Margit Lukács

Persijn Broersen and Margit Lukács are artists based in Amsterdam. In today’s visual culture, fiction is usurping the place of reality. Broersen & Lukács respond to this by creating video that present a parallel world of spectacular images that fully absorb the viewer in which ‘nature’ acts as a mirror for our media dictated culture. Their films and installations have been shown internationally at a.o. Biennale of Sydney (AU), Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam (NL), Rencontres Arles (FR), Art Wuzhen (CN), MUHKA (BE), Centre Pompidou (FR) and Casa Enscendida (ES). Upcoming shows are at Rencontres, Le grand Palais (FR), A4Art Museum, (CN), Eres Foundation (DE), HeK (CH), Auckland Art Gallery (NZ). Recently their publication All, or Nothing at All was released with texts by Juliana Engberg, Nat Muller and Alena Alexandrova.

In their video, animation, and graphic works, Amsterdam-based artists Persijn Broersen and Margit Lukács consider the intertwined relationships between reality, media, and fiction. This, their first solo exhibition in Canada, comprises two of their video installations, Forest on Location (2018) and Mastering Bambi (2010), both of which take nature as their subject matter and work to unhinge hegemonic ways of looking at landscape.
