Elsje Dezwarte. COIL
2023 || Paperback || Elsje Dezwarte || Mer
Elsje Dezwartes book Coil is a visual and cerebral reflection of everything and nothing, of how humans experience and live through time. It is about human experience across generations; caught in an infinite time loop. The cadence and rhythm of the images slowly carry the viewer along, as time passes. The reader becomes part of the scene and decides for themselves the direction and sequence of events. Are they looking at the present, the past or the future? The landscapes develop their own ch...

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.

Aarzelend tussen existentiële bokkensprongen en een soms versteende stilte, evolueert die wereld same...

For him, that image, and by extension visual art, is a place of wonder and mystery, a g...

Tom Van Puyvelde. Variantes
2023 || Paperback || Domenico De Chirico || Mer
"We could compare Van Puyvelde’s approach to painting to an instinctive, all-encompassing vision, a careful and patient observation of a small plot of land where every is silent, but where everything is happening at once, where the wind varies, the lights move, and where that which often remains in its place suddenly seems to be no longer there." These are the words used by art critic Domenico de Chirico to describe the work of Belgian artist Tom Van Puyvelde.
Tom Van Puyvelde (b.1985) live...

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. The turning point though was when she discovered the work of Igor Kislitsyn, who was—and still is—relatively unknown, partly because he is zealously religious. Kotova was strong...
