Description
Additional Info.

50 Years of Colorstudies is the first exhibition of Jan Dibbets at Loom Gallery, and is comprised of recent works from the series Colorstudies (produced from 2010 until 2022). Dibbets based the series on a photograph taken during 1976. This original is present at the gallery, in combination with the new pieces.

During the 70s Dibbets printed the images as large as the technology of the day would allow, and fifty years later, today’s digital techniques enable the production of even greater enlargements, leading to this new series of monumental ‘abstract’ photographs.

Developing a painterly approach to photography, Dibbets has challenged the assumption that photography produces only objective reproductions of reality, underlining the contradiction between what we know and what we perceive, between the supposedly conflicting realities of “abstraction” and “figuration”.

Exploring the possibilities for the photograph as an art object, Jan Dibbets has insisted on a single analogue negative as the Colorstudies source; in order to understand what possibilities digital reinterpretation can offer.
