Artmarket (Part 1)

Yesterday, I went to Artmarket and it was greeeat!

On this 'market' you could watch artwork created live by young clothing-, graphic designers, painters and illustrators. And, if you're interested, you could also buy these freshly made artwork! There was also a DJ spinning some electronic and hiphop music to give the visitors are cosy, warm, home-feeling while 'shopping' for art. :)

I've seen many interesting installations (and people) on this event, as shown in these pics...all shot by me. :)


- Can you see the Artmarket sign? Haha. Very cute. -


- I don't know exactly what this artwork was called. Looks like a 'living' lamp. -


- Steven De Peven (dj / producer, on the left) is one craaaaazy dude. Believe me. These guys were selling wooden 'pointing sticks'....-


- Cute girls standing at the clothing rack. -

That's so nice! Reminds me of this big inside-market i visited in East Side, London. Half of the market consisted of food from all over the world, and then you had clothes and designer things from up and coming-designers (didnt keep the prices from being sky high though haha).
