04 Mar Joram Roukes 15.03.13 – 31.03.13
For his upcoming show at StolenSpace Gallery titled ‘Les bons Sauvages’, Roukes has made a body of work that touches the subject of folklore and tradition, placing human/animal figures in situations ranging from western folkloric festivities to common customs and behavior in a context or environment touching both dream and reality, nature and nurture. Les Bons Sauvages is a reference to the crevice between the latter and can be seen as a common, reoccurring theme in the recent work of Roukes.
