Abstract

Vanity is een boeiende rondleiding in het steeds uitdeinende universum van de kunstenaar. Jan Vanriet is een sleutelfiguur in de hedendaagse Belgische schilderkunst. In 2010 sloot hij het Museum voor Schone Kunsten in Antwerpen met de overzichtstentoonstelling Closing Time en in 2014 gooide hij opnieuw hoge ogen met Gezichtsverlies in de Kazerne Dossin, een expo die in januari 2015 naar Moskou doorreist. In Vanity toont hij de meer dan 100 olieverfschilderijen die hij in 2013 en 2014 maakte. De thematische en stilistische verscheidenheid en de wisselende toonaard zetten het eens te meer in de verf: hij is een kunstenaar die nieuwe wegen durft te exploreren. Exhibition: Roberto Polo Gallery, Brussel, Belgium (06.02-05.04.2015)

Abstract

The music boy' exhibition at the New Art Gallery Walsall is the artist's first in the United Kingdom. A 168-page hardback, illustrated catalogue featuring extensive essays by Andrew Graham-Dixon and Martin Herbert, as well as a foreword by Charlotte Mullins was published on the occasion. The exhibition is titled after a quadriptych of paintings depicting the artist's grandmother and his uncle playing an accordion. Jan Vanriet's work mainly concerns the memory of history and the construction of pictorial surface. As Martin Herbert writes: 'Vanriet builds up his paintings in layers, and the strata of underpainting have, in his case, a polyvalent quality. In some cases they form glazes that gift the paintings with an internal glow.' Exhibition: The New Art Gallery Walsall, Walsall, UK (29.01-08.05.2016).
