Xavier Mary. Victory over the Sun

2022 || Hardcover || Mer

Spanning fifteen years of artistic practice, this monograph derives its title from a 1913 avant-garde Cubo-Futurist opera celebrating the demise of the sun. It confronts us with the speculative state of reality after the end of the world, a barren ontological wasteland in which artifacts have lost their utility. In his work, Xavier Mary is concerned with the dreams and nightmares of modernity, resulting from its inherently industrial nature. The sense of an impending apocalypse or total destr...

Narcisse Tordoir. Time Without Future

2022 || Paperback || Melanie Deboutte e.a. || Mer

An insatiable hunger for pictorial and formal experimentation fuels the practice and particularly diverse body of work of this artist. Various styles and media are blended in a flamboyant ode to painting – an eruption of composition, color, materials, and sculptural interventions. Belgian artist Narcisse Tordoir (born 1954) challenges the viewer to sharpen their gaze and question the status of the image. For him, that image, and by extension visual art, is a place of wonder and mystery, a g...

Tomislav Nikolic. Invocations of consciousness

2022 || Hardcover || Julie Ewington e.a. || Mer

“There is a lot of libido in the works of Tomislav Nikolic. An excess of desire which throbs and pulsates — palpitates — like some disco night atmosphere full of adrenaline and exaggerated lust. No!, you say. Nikolic’s works are exquisite, beautiful, serene, transcendent, mystical, spiritual. Yes, Ok they are, but they are also a bacchanal, carnival and a mardi gras; a late night in a mosh pit when things get loose and hyperventilated. They are all — every¬thing. Yet restrained. Co...

Albert Pepermans. Ca suffit ?

2022 || Hardcover || Christine Vuegen || Mer

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...
