Drawing by Marcel van Eeden

2005

“In 1993, the Dutch artist Marcel van Eeden drew up rules for his practice that he’s followed ever since. He specified that he would produce at least one drawing a day, on sheets of paper all hand-cut to the same dimensions, and that the pictures would be based exclusively on found images and events predating his birth, on November 22, 1965. They thus involve happenings that he cannot possibly have experienced or influenced even remotely. Van Eeden equates the prenatal state of non-being with the time following death. ‘When you were not around, it did not affect anyone,’ he has said, ‘and when you will no longer be there, it will be the same.’”- from artinfo
