AanZet! is an artprize for starting talent from the provinces of Overijssel and Gelderland. Early this year, David Scheidler as one of four nominees for the AanZet! prize was offered a working period and a subsequent solo-exhibition in Kunstvereniging Diepenheim. With his exhibition ‘Multiple Perception’ he won the cash prize of 4000 euros. On May 29th, he was also awarded the commission for a work of art for the Saxion art collection.
David Scheidler is a multimedia artist with a preference for techniques and technology. In a playful way, he integrates moving images and sound. In his exhibition named ‘Multiple Perception’, the artist shows interactive as well as sound works linked to youth culture and the new media.
From the jury report:
“David Scheidler is aware of the fact that for an artist it can be a pitfall to rely too much on technique. An inventor is not yet an artist.
For his exhibition ‘Multiple Perception’, he --in a short period of time-- created five very different and mature works of art. It is a group exhibition of a curious artist who re-invents himself again and again. Scheidler masters his art, is in control of the technique and of the exhibition space. He knows when to stop in order to get to the core.
Scheidler in a generous and intelligent way shares with the public his fascination for the wonder of sound. However, he’s not merely a sound-artist. David Scheidler is capable of intoxicating us with a light-installation based on the transformation of movement into a single pixel, such with the colour shading of a painter”.
The jury of AanZet! 2009 consists of: Erik Mattijssen [visual artist], Julia van Mourik [editor, curator, director Lost&Found], Paul Kooiker [visual artist].
AanZet! is an initiative of Kunstvereniging Diepenheim, AkkuH [Aktuele Kunst Hengelo], Kunstenlab [Deventer] and CBK Arnhem.
AanZet! from 2005 until 2009 forms part of the A1 artproject [see www.kunstenlab.nl].
