Baldrick Buckle (born 1972) is a British-born artist and sculptor. Officially a resident of the Netherlands, Buckle owns an apartment and studio complex in the Bijlmer district of Amsterdam but has spent almost all of the last decade in America, Australia, Japan and Singapore. == Work == Often socially or politically motivated, Buckle's sculptures and installations capture an ironic view and disillusionment with hegemonic culture systems and globalisation. By using common objects and images with which to illustrate his point, Buckle's work is deliberately accessible. This has on occasion led to criticisms of one-dimensionality and populism. Buckle's shows include ''Bread & Work!'' (Oude Kerk, Amsterdam, January 2007) and ''Pieces'' (Europlaza, Pakhuis De Zwijger, Amsterdam, May 2007) both of which were covered by the Dutch national newspapers ''NRC Handelsblad''〔http://www.nrc.nl/kunst/article734734.ece 〕 and ''De Telegraaf''. A version of ''Pieces'' that included a car, a caravan, a gin & tonic bar and a market stall was also commissioned and exhibited by the organisers of the (Art Car Boot Fair ) 2007, held in London's Brick Lane. The installation was extensively captured on BBC Collective〔http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/A24709854〕 and was also used as the backdrop to a ''Richard & Judy'' television feature on the event. Buckle was awarded first prize at the Berlage Fund in July 2007. Buckle is one of the only non-RCA graduates to ever exhibit at the RCA Secret〔http://dams.rca.ac.uk/netpub/server.np?find&site=RCA_Secret&field=Forename&op=contains&value=Baldrick%20Buckle&sorton=Ref&catalog=catalog&template=results.np〕 exhibition, held in London at the end of each year. In July 2011 Buckle set off from the northern tip of Scotland to walk the length of mainland Great Britain. The journey was documented via a solar powered smart phone. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baldrick Buckle」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
