Biography
Anonymity allows the passerby of appropriate urban diversions of Harmen de Hoop according to his imagination, disconnecting them from any link with the artistic world. A basketball court that seems to slip under a wall, HOTEL sticker on a subway entrance, accessories on statues are part of the vocabulary of his wacky and cheering installations.
