Publication accompanying the appealing exhibition at the Dutch Pavilion at the Venice Biennale 2019. For the Venice Biennale 2019, Benno Tempel, director of the Gemeentemuseum Den Haag curated the exhibition The Measurement of Presence, in which he combines installations by Remy Jungerman with wall paintings and paintings by Iris Kensmil. Remy Jungerman is interested in the path travelled by patterns. In his work he combines motifs from Africa, Maroon culture, and twentieth-century modernism. Iris Kensmil invites us to expand our consciousnesson utopian twentieth-century avant-garde and introduces us to Black female activists and artists who have been neglected for too long.
