mrewr: Encyclopedia Of My Death by Marcel van Eeden Dutch artist Marcel van Eeden (marcelvaneeden.nl) was born in 1965 in The Hague. His magnum opus is to make a drawing a day based on any source that precedes the year he was born. Using imagery culled from an array of historical material—illustrations from old books, topographical atlases, newspapers, photo archives, magazines like Life or Paris Match—van Eeden draws a world he never knew. 140 new drawings by van Eeden, devoted to K.M. Wiegand, will debut at the Fourth Berlin Biennale of Contemporary Art. Van Eeden is represented in North America by the Clint Roenisch gallery.
