Exhibition catalogue, Stedelijk Van Abbemuseum Eindhoven 13.11.1999-09.01.2000. Raedecker's paintings play a game of taking out and leaving in. On the one hand they are empty, almost schematic images created from just a few lines, a few visual fragments. On the other hand they have something archetypical, almost familiar about them. One way Raedecker achieves this effect is by building his images out of very carefully executed details, contrary to the apparent schematic character of the work. His paintings are also characterised by an unusual use of materials: threads and embroidery in combination with very thinly applied paint or paint 'poured out' in thick globs.
