About. Lecture
About. Lecture. Willem de Rooij's work is determined by the selection and combination of images in diverse media, such as sculpture, film, photography and text. His work analyzes the conventions of presentation and representation and assesses the tension between socio-political and autonomous image production. Where early film installations already had a sculptural quality, his most recent exhibitions became works of art in their own right, often incorporating found materials or appropriated works of art. De Rooij's lecture will focus on works produced over the last 5 years, and especially on his most current installation Intolerance which is on show at the Neue Nationalgalerie in Berlin till January 3 / 2011.
