Abstract

The renowned sculptor Peter Buggenhout (b. 1963, Dendermonde, Belgium; lives and works in Ghent) describes his hybrid pieces as "abject things" that defy classification and even the label "work of art." He aggregates and manipulates found and discarded objects as well as both technical and organic materials including pig blood, cow stomachs, and horsehair until he achieves a certain degree of abstraction. Buggenhout's sculptures confront the beholder as creatures that are somehow "off," exuding an eerie atmosphere by allowing something sinister to rise to the surface that, it appears, lurks just behind the façades of the physical world: vestiges of humanity, society's sedimented refuse. The book presents a comprehensive survey of his growing oeuvre; it is the first publication to cover his most recent creations in marble.

Abstract

This is the first monograph of one of the most talented Flemish artists/sculptors with international standing, and is part of a very important year for Peter Buggenhout: he has an exposition in the Herzliya Museum in Tel Aviv (The blind leading the blind, 6th December 2008 - 16th May 2009) and his work will also be part of a prestigious exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery ("Shape of things to come: New Sculpture") in September. Moreover, his work is selected by Axel Vervoordt to be displayed at 'la Biennale di Venezia'. Buggenhout creates installations/sculptures that seem to fall apart or stick together, organisms in transition and this publication showcases a fantastic selection of his work.
