Marijn van Kreij (Middelrode, 1978) usually bases his works on existing images, ranging from artworks, cartoons and illustrations found in children’s books
to book jackets and record covers. He collects the images in question because they intrigue him. In his studio, Van Kreij studies the found images, drawing his
own copies in order to to get a better understanding of them. He sometimes combines them with bits of text to form collages. What at first seems fleeting and
accidental is in fact the result of a lengthy process of looking, arranging and rearranging.

The artist integrates and alters the images, grouping them together in associative series. By doing so, he gives iconic and lesser-known artworks from the
20th century a new place and meaning in the here-and-now. In How to Look at a Spiral, he brings together numerous works from the past decade, in which
motifs such as the window, the grid or the spiral consistently take on new forms.
