Kamarama
From May 1st until August 1st, 2012, artist, painter, theatre and television producer Kamagurka acts as curator for a special art project in Bruges: Kamarama. On several locations he will display his own works as well as works of other artists who inspire and fascinate him. It is an exhibition full of remarkable art, surprising perspectives and a certain amount of humour.
The Arentshuis was transformed into a live atelier in which Kamagurka displays his own art works. From time to time he will create a new work here, by himself or together with other artists.
Programme: Kamagurka & David Bade: May 1st, Kamagurka & Stephen Tunney: May 3rd and 4th, Kamagurka & Werner Mannaers: May 17th and 18th, Kamagurka & Jeroen Henneman: June 28th and 29th, Kamagurka & Muzo: July 10th and 11th.
In the Garemijn Hall, Kamagurka displays works from artists who inspired and influenced him. He likes to combine historic and contemporary art. He’s also fascinated by international links and the use of mixed media in art.
Displayed artists: Capitaine Lonchamps (B), David Bade (NL), Don Van Vliet a.k.a. Captain Beefheart (US), Emile Salkin (F), Francis Picabia (F), Fred Bervoets (B), George Condo (US), George Grosz (D), Georges Ribemont-Dessaignes (F), Herr Seele (B), J.J. Grandville (F), James Ensor (B) , Jan Fabre (B), Jeff Olsson (S), Jeroen Henneman (NL), Kati Heck (D), Luc Tuyman s (B), Lucebert (NL), Marcel Duchamp (F), Markus Lüpertz (D), Max Ernst (D), Muzo (F), Otto Dix (D), Pablo Picasso (E), Paul Joostens (B), René Daniëls (NL), René Magritte (B), Rinus Van de Velde (B), Roland Topor (FR), Stephen Tunney a.k.a. Dogbowl (US), Werner Mannaers (B), Wim Delvoye (B), Wim T. Schippers (NL) and Yves Obyn (B).
There are also art works in the streets of Bruges such as Kamagurka’s ‘accidental’ portraits of fictive people. 12 portraits are spread around the Arentshof garden and alongside the Dijver. If you think you recognize a family member, friend or acquaintance in one of the portraits, you can report this online. At the end of the project, Kamagurka will chose the one who is the best lookalike of one of his portraits.
Yves Obyn created a very special art work for Kamarama. It represents a crashed Beechcraft Bonanza. A fanatic built his own airplane but because of the poor construction, it quickly crashed. The spectator is a disaster tourist, causing a congestion in the heart of Bruges due to the curiosity factor.

From the book's "Introduction", reader will learn the history of NeoPopRealism and its creation. It was an experiment. Nadia Russ was trying to connect to the Universe and let the Universe use her as a Conductor when she created her drawings. She did not want to follow any other artists’ achievements, but decided to create absolutely new art form, like Picasso (Cubism), Dali (Surrealism), and a few other artists had done. Nadia took her ink pen and began to draw the flowing line that turned into shapes, figures, and often faces. Then, some or all sections, that appeared, she filled with the repetitive patterns. she created. She never uses eraser because if a 'mistake' made, it disappears with the following repetitive patterns that balance the whole composition. Her work was unique, no one else did anything like this before. January 4, 2003, Nadia Russ created a word NeoPopRealism and internationally announced new style of visual arts...
This book divided to several chapters, such as "Get inspired"; "How to create a simplified NeoPopRealism ink drawing"; "How to create advanced but still simplified NeoPopRealism ink drawing"; "Draw the repetitive patterns here & now"; "Create your drawing from the scratch"; "Your patterns gallery"; "Learn to improvise with Nadia Russ"; "Your exercising pages"; and other.
Fragment from the chapter "Get inspired":
"...You would like to create something very unique and that’s not always easy to do. You need to learn how to connect to the Universe and open your mind to the higher powers.
Close your eyes for a moment. Imaging that your spirit and soul leaving your flesh and flow to the space where there are no people there but only super speed and super powers. Forget about your daily life experiences with supermarkets and laundry stations. No noise should disturb you except, possible, music. You are not you any more, you are a part of the Universe.
Slowly open your eyes. Try not to look around, look only at piece of a plain white paper. This is the beginning. . . Now draw.
If you, after all that, couldn’t draw any NeoPopRealism image, go to the next pages of this book. After you learn how to draw with the all offered tips and tricks, come back to this page again and let see what will happen."

Craftsman
It is a subject of artcraft in my home town Safi, Morocco. Pottery or Ceramics is one of important city activities. I have been working in each summer time holiday after the closure of the school. I learned many technics from that school and I have tried to express my feeling toward those craftsmen of my town with this beautiful artwork to be a print across the history.
