Stanley Brouwn

The Surinamese, Amsterdam based artist, Stanley Brouwn (b. 1935) has been making works that revolve around human locomotion and units and modes of measurement for some five decades. Although Brouwn is known for the stringent precision with which he records the basic human activity of walking, a certain levity and imprecision are in play in the series This Way Brouwn, which consists of a collection of maps drawn by people approached for directions in Amsterdam.

Since 1972, Stanley Brouwn has requested that his work shall not be reproduced.
