What does the art of painting still mean in today? That is a question that occupies Vincent Geyskens and that he explores in his diverse oeuvre. When we look at images, we look for connections with our world, with the reality we know. Vincent plays with these expectations of images and painting: what do images mean to us, what role do surfaces and paint play in how we read and analyse an image, what links do we make with images we encounter in our everyday life? For the artist, painting is a way of making thoughts concrete and matter visible. His work challenges you, the viewer. Vincent Geyskens uses figurative and abstract elements interchangeably and experiments with different types of surfaces. These range from paper to plastic, from canvas to objects he has found, and in this way he explores the limits and possibilities of the chosen surfaces. Exhibition: Museum M, Leuven, Belgium (27.05.-09.09.2021).

"Cuban-born artist Carmen Herrera (b. 1915) has painted for more than seven decades, though it is only in recent years that acclaim for her work has catapulted the artist to international prominence. This handsome volume offers the first sustained examination of her early career from 1948 to 1978, which spans the art worlds of Havana, Paris, and New York. Essays consider the artist's early studies in Cuba, her involvement with the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles in postwar Paris, and her groundbreaking New York output, as well as situate her work in the context of a broader Latin American avant-garde art. An essay by Dana Miller considers Herrera's New York work of the 1950s through the 1970s, when Herrera was arriving at and perfecting her signature style. Personal family photographs from Herrera's archive enrich the narrative, and a chronology addressing the entirety of her life and career features additional documentary images. Over eighty works are illustrated as color plates, making this book the most extensive representation of Herrera's work to date."

Philip Akkerman (1957) has kept a diary since his academy days. This diary describes his struggle with the mystery of existence, his struggle with art and the art world, his struggle with painting technique and his struggle with himself. The question is whether without this diary he would ever have started painting self-portraits and, if he had already started painting, how long he would have maintained it. 'Philip Akkerman. Artist Diary 'takes you into the chaotic flood of contradictory thoughts in Akkerman's head. Slowly but surely, the 'real' Philip Akkerman emerges. In addition to texts about philosophy and painting techniques, the reader also gets a glimpse into the art world where nothing and no one is spared. Philip Akkerman (1957) houdt sinds zijn academietijd een dagboek bij. Dit dagboek beschrijft zijn worsteling met het bestaansmysterie, zijn worsteling met de kunst en de kunstwereld, zijn worsteling met de schildertechniek en zijn worsteling met zichzelf. Het is de vraag of hij zonder dit dagboek ooit met het schilderen van zelfportretten begonnen zou zijn en, indien hij er al mee begonnen zou zijn, hoe lang hij dit dan volgehouden zou hebben. 'Philip Akkerman. Kunstenaarsdagboek' neemt je mee in de chaotische stortvloed van tegenstrijdige gedachten in het hoofd van Akkerman. Langzaam maar zeker komt de 'echte' Philip Akkerman bovendrijven. Naast teksten over filosofie en schildertechniek krijgt de lezer ook een inkijkje in de kunstwereld waarbij niets en niemand gespaard wordt.
