Abstract

Constructed as a contextual history of art in Europe, 'A New History of Western Art' deconstructs and demystifies the long history of Western art to reveal its paradigms, rationales, and biases. Considering a multitude of continuities, it focuses on the economical, theoretical, scientific, poetical, political, and religious circumstances that have shaped art in Europe. Shifting backward and forward in time, the book approaches visual art as an intriguing phenomenon, one which can be addressed from innumerable different angles. Not positioning itself as an end point, it shows that works of art are closely bound up with the historical dynamics in which they arose and the shifting perspectives from which they are viewed. By taking art for what it actually is-a piece of stone or wood, a sheet of paper with some lines drawn on it, or a painted canvas-and by eliminating aesthetic value as a point of departure, A New History of Western Art shows how such meaningless objects became carriers of wide-ranging, constantly changing appraisals. Breaking with the conventional genius-artist approach, this extraordinary survey radically re-examines the evolution of European art from ancient to present.

Abstract

Michel Buylen (Ghent, °1953) is a multi-faceted and headstrong painter, who never ceases to astonish with both his amazing virtuosity and his new take on centuries-old subjects; such as the nude, the child, the landscape, the sea as an obligate abstraction and the portrait as compromise and confrontation. Michel Buylen is anything but a conventional artist. Aided by acrylic, he succeeds in re-translating life, in all its diversity and nuances, enriching it with his own vision. Each new work forms a window to a sublimated reality, sometimes poetic and moving, often distant and surprising. It is this combination of vulnerable beauty and mysterious estrangement that gives Buylen a unique place within Belgium's contemporary art scene. Since 1992 Michel Buylen has been represented by Galerie De Zwarte Panter, Antwerp, and is a Member of the Royal Flemish Academy of Belgium for Arts and Sciences, Class of the Arts.

Abstract

Ce livre offre une vue d’ensemble de la collaboration de longue date entre l’artiste belge Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven et la galerie Zeno X. Les treize expositions individuelles que Van Kerckhoven a présentées à la galerie des années 1980 à aujourd’hui sont au cœur de la publication. Des vues d’installation mettent en lumière certaines des importantes expositions muséales et des projets remarquables pour lesquels l’artiste a été invité, tant en Belgique qu’à l’étranger. La publication comprend également de nombreuses photographies, des coupures de presse, des cartons d’invitation et des critiques tirés de ses vastes archives. Anne-Mie Van Kerckhoven (née en 1951) travaille depuis les années 1980 à un corpus d’œuvres composé de dessins, peintures, collages, films et installations. Elle manipule des images représentant des femmes – d’abord manuellement, puis numériquement – afin de remettre en question l’objectivation des femmes et les systèmes de pouvoir en vigueur. De manière intuitive et non conventionnelle, elle explore des sujets tels que la science, le langage et l’intelligence artificielle, créant un univers qui lui est propre et dans lequel les oppositions entre chaos et ordre, logique et mysticisme, érotisme et technologie sont abolies.

Abstract

A magnificent introduction to the Cobra art movement With French as its working language, Cobra was pretty much the last truly European movement within Modernism. The group’s anarchic story is not just an important strand in art history — it remains as lively as ever and has inspired all sorts of artists who were never directly involved with Cobra. The work bequeathed to us by Karel Appel, Pierre Alechinsky, Constant, Corneille and other kindred spirits is as fascinating as ever, both raw and confronting, poetic and moving. It is with the same spirit of artistic joyfulness and freedom that this book showcases the masterpieces of Cobra art belonging to The Phoebus Foundation.
