Abstract

Conservator Jan Hoet koos uit zijn Museum voor Hedendaagse Kunst 8 intrigerende werken en schoof die voor de pen van 4 toonaangevende dichters. Net zo eigenzinnig en fantasievol alsde plastische kunstenaars gingen de dichters aan de slag met het werk van hun beeldende collega's als uitgangspunt. Het resultaat is een boeiende en speelse confrontatie tussen beeld- en woordkunstenaars, maar ook tussen de gedichten onderling. De kunstenaars zijn Marcel Broodthaers, René Margritte, Luciano Fabro en de dichters Daniel Billiet, Johanna Kruit en Gil van der Heyden.

Abstract

Catalogue de l'exposition de La Centrale électrique, à Bruxelles, du 19 juin au 29 septembre 2009. Cette exposition retrace le parcours d'un passionné d'art contemporain et des artistes, Albert Baronian, qui, avec audace, en 1973, ouvre sa première galerie dans son appartement bruxellois, à l'époque où seuls deux lieux majeurs existaient dans ce secteur : la galerie MTL à Bruxelles et le Wide White Space à Anvers. Sentant l'effervescence de la scène artistique bruxelloise en dialogue tendu avec la scène artistique parisienne, il décide de présenter des artistes d'avant-garde, comme ceux de « Supports/Surfaces », fait découvrir au public belge l'arte povera, avec des artistes tels que Zorio, Merz, Penone, inconnus en Belgique et qui, depuis sont devenus incontournables sur la scène internationale. Alain Séchas, Georges Baselitz, sont aussi passés par ce lieu précurseur. Il lance aussi de nombreux jeunes artistes, comme Didier Vermeiren, Michel Frère, Benoit Platéus, Marc Trivier, Marie José Burki, Wang Du, Lionel Estève, etc. L'exposition rassemble des oeuvres historiques majeures et aussi de nouvelles créations de ces artistes.

Abstract

From September 25, 2016 onwards, Herbert Foundation presents the exhibition Time Extended / 1964 - 1978. The presentation forms the first part of a diptych that unites the Collection and the Archive in a flexible, yet lasting manner. Time Extended / 1964 - 1978 focuses on the period surrounding the historic events of 1968, which also constitutes the outset of the Herbert Collection. The social shifts occurring in these years, as well as the contact with the artists and a number of progressive gallery owners, determined Annick and Anton Herbert's vision with regards to collecting. The title of the exhibition refers to Time Extended / Distance Extended, a work from 1969 by Dan Graham, which is part of the Herbert Collection. The apparent opposition between, on the one hand, outlining the period 1964-1978 and, on the other hand, 'extending' time, characterises the intention of the exhibition. Because, even though the presented works and documents are unmistakably connected to the period in which they were created, their content is also very valuable from a contemporary perspective. Exhibition: Herbert Foundation, Ghent, Belgium (September 25, 2016 - ).

Abstract

The Boghossian Foundation is pleased to present the exhibition Ekphrasis, curated by Bruno Cora, director of the Burri Foundation in Italy. It brings together pieces from more than forty artists from around the world, whose styles are as varied as the media they use, but in whose works the use of language plays a key role. The definition of ekphrasis is a laudatory and constructed description of a work of art, real or imaginary, often designed on a model so as to achieve great evocative force. The first famous ekphrasis goes back to Greek Antiquity: this is the description Homer gives of Achilles? shield in the Iliad. The weapon was forged by Hephaestus so that?everyone should be amazed? If the rhetorical exercise of ekphrasis presents itself as an ancient practice, the genre has been used throughout the ages with remarkable continuity, with many famous writers exploring it. Conversely, many artists have also been inspired by reading ekphrases, like Botticelli, who produced a canvas based on a description from Antiquity. In fact, there is a great tradition of artists who have concerned themselves with both the visual arts and literature, poetry or politics, and for whom language is a constituent element of their work. The exhibition explores through the contemporary artists gathered here the issues raised and various preferred modes of the use of language in visual art.
