Late 16th Century Collaborative Strategies

So apparently Collaborative Strategies were big in Antwerp around the 16th & 17th centuries... I saw this painting "Battle of Amazons" a collaborative painting by Jan Bruegel and P.P. Rubens at the Rubenhuis, in downtown Antwerp.

Earlier this morning I came accross another Bruegel collaboration, a painting of the 9 muses meeting with Minerva, the Roman Goddess of War. This painting, which I didn't get then name of, was housed in the Koninklijk Museum voor Schone Kunsten Antwerpen.

Inka Essenhigh's paintings redefine pop as the epitome of aesthetic hierarchy. Her ultra-slick surfaces operate as virtual fields, where estranged narratives play out in cross-wired systems of a reference and recognition. Influenced by 19th century caricatures, oriental art, Arabic miniatures, and contemporary comics, Inka Essenhigh's paintings are both exotic and operatic: envisioning futuristic mythologies frozen in dynamic moments of suspended animation. -PATRICIA ELLIS
