In this solo-exhibition he will show 3 new drawings of his series Mapping Beauty and a second hand scroll Third Sister You he made during his winter residency at the Institute for Provocation (IFP). The first hand scroll Gay Love, which he drew during his summer residency at IFP, is on display in the Fries Museum now. Exhibition location: Black Sesame Space, Beijing.
The new drawings are part of his long term project New Illusions of Love. Bakker gets his inspiration from the classical and famous Chinese novel The Dream of the Red Chamber, which is about old and tragic illusions of love.
