Petrus De Man
2022 || Hardcover || Petrus de Man e.a. || Mer
Petrus De Man geniet als schilder en tekenaar faam voor de creatie van een bijzonder poëtisch universum met rauwe, geconstrueerde en vaak erg kleurige accenten. Kind-mannetjes, gevangenen van hun lot maar tevens bezeten van een drang naar vrijheid, zoeken een plaats binnen de beslotenheid van muren en betoverde tuinen, tussen melancholie en schalksheid, in een wereld gecreëerd op hun maat. Aarzelend tussen existentiële bokkensprongen en een soms versteende stilte, evolueert die wereld same...

Albert Pepermans. Ca suffit ?
2022 || Hardcover || Christine Vuegen || Mer
The book Ça suffit? is the high point of the festive year on the occasion of the 75th birthday of artist Albert Pepermans, organised by Schönfeld Gallery. For a whole year a different aspect of Pepermans’ oeuvre was presented every four weeks. At Art Brussels 2022 a solo booth was dedicated to Pepermans as well. The year concludes with this extensive monograph.
Ça suffit? is more than a barren summary of Pepermans’ oeuvre. It is an atypical reference book by an atypical artist. It is a...
Nadya Kotova Gallery, X Years in Art, 2012-2022
2023 || Hardcover || Nadya Kotova e.a. || Mer
The book X Years in Art celebrates the ten year anniversary of the Antwerp based Nadya Kotova Gallery. Studying economics in the early 1990s in St. Petersburg—during the shift from a planned market economy to a free market economy in Russia—she initially didn’t think of becoming a gallerist or an art dealer.
