Kaspar Dejong (Maastricht, NL, 1995) and Moritz Lindur (Köln,
DE, 1993) both show in their practice a soft spot for the imperfect.
Most of Dejong's work sources from his close living environment:
the city. Montz's work is a frenetic and hyperactive exploration of
the many facets of humankind, language and both societal and
global issues. In his book 'Madness and Civilization, Foucault
speaks about the institutionalization of mentally disabled people,
who were in the renaissance to be seen as a different form of in-
tellect rather than crazy or mad'. They were seen as free spirits,
not bounded by rules nor regulations. They ought to pose a kind
of wisdom, because they demonstrate the limits of reason. Lindur
and Dejong tend to seek that which displays the madness in
modern life, situations that somehow demonstrate our own limits
of reason. The moment when the planned, gets disrupted; when
the beauty of incompetence shows itself". In the exhibition 24/3
Lindur and Dejong show a selection of works including a book-
publication that emphasis the daily imperfections that surround
us
