\nIn the Australian artist James Geurts<\/strong>\u2019 (1970) work, travel is interpreted as a physical movement through space. One of the exhibited works is the video Salt Drawing Lake, for which the artist shot images of an enormous salt lake in Australia from a light aircraft, pointing directly down at the surface to draw an imaginary line across the lake.
\nStan Klamer<\/strong>\u2019s (1951) drawings can be seen as cartographical works in which he organizes and controls reality. Recent works resemble sea charts, with little boats derived from Japanese and Chinese prints and from artists such as Pieter Breughel, Arnold Bo\u0308cklin and Odillon Redon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\nFor her work Moments of Accuracy Esther Kokmeijer<\/strong> (1977) travelled twice to Grimsey, a small island north of Iceland. The Arctic Circle runs straight across this island, as a result of which the sun doesn\u2019t set during the summer solstice (21 June) and doesn\u2019t rise during the winter solstice (21 December). Kokmeijer photographed the roads running through the desolate Icelandic landscape and the point at which the Arctic Circle crosses the island.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
