Abstract

Al eeuwenlang weet Johannes Vermeer telkens weer nieuwe generaties te fascineren. Met zijn wereldberoemde schilderijen, zoals Het melkmeisje en Het meisje met de parel, heeft hij een legendarische status verworven. Zijn intieme, introverte scènes binnenshuis worden dankzij het overtuigende illusionisme en het unieke gebruik van helder, kleurrijk licht tot de mooiste werken binnen de schilderkunst gerekend. In de aanloop naar de tentoonstelling Vermeer in het Rijksmuseum is door een internationaal team van Vermeer-kenners, onder leiding van Pieter Roelofs en Gregor J.M. Weber, uitgebreid onderzoek verricht naar het leven en kunstenaarschap van de zeventiende-eeuwse schilder. Dat heeft nieuwe inzichten opgeleverd over zijn maatschappelijke positie, huishouden, geloofsleven, techniek en de invloed van zijn omgeving op zijn schilderkunst. Door de nieuwe kennis over zijn persoonlijke leven te verbinden met zijn werk komen we nu dichter bij Vermeer dan ooit tevoren. Dit boek, ontworpen door Irma Boom, dompelt de lezer onder in de immens rijke picturale wereld van de Delftse meester. Alle 37 aan hem toegeschreven werken zijn in deze publicatie opgenomen, en de vele details van de schilderijen doen ons steeds opnieuw in verwondering naar Vermeers kunst kijken. Onder redactie van Pieter Roelofs en Gregor J.M. Weber. Met bijdragen van Bart Cornelis, Bente Frissen, Sabine Pénot, Pieter Roelofs, Friederike Schütt, Christian Tico Seifert, Ariane van Suchtelen, Gregor J.M. Weber en Marjorie E. Wieseman. Officiële publicatie bij de indrukwekkende Vermeer-tentoonstelling in Rijksmuseum Amsterdam van 10 februari tot 4 juni 2023.

Abstract

In her bold and colorful paintings, Joëlle Dubois (b. 1990; lives and works in Ghent) examines the impact of social media and the role of humans in our modern society. Inspired by the constant stream of photos and video clips of the Internet, she confronts the viewer with explicit scenes of private life. By means of playful improvised compositions, Dubois captures both the surfeit and the transient nature of the images. In her figurative paintings on wooden panels, she deals with topics such as gender, sexuality and fetishism. In a mixture of lethargy, obsession and sadness, Dubois shows her characters in compromising and intimate positions and thus pointedly captures today's hectic, confused Zeitgeist

Abstract

‘Bootleg Paintings’ is a series of works based on classics of 20th-century painting. In his own way, Durinck translates well-known and lesser-known 20th-century works by repainting them in a combination of bright green and black oil paint. This collection contains works by a wide variety of artists: including Picasso’s Les demoiselles d’Avignon (1907), L’usage de la Parole (1927-29) by Magritte, Le movement des billes (1926) by Fernand Léger, Zig-zag Zigzag (1987) by René Daniëls, The Studio (1969) by Philip Guston, Käthe Grüsse (1990) by Luc Tuymans, …. The series was started in 2019 and counts 36 paintings today.

Abstract

Reclining Fragments, Ritsart Gobyn’s second book is the sequel to In Between and, as if by some miracle, thus completes the sentence: ‘In Between Reclining Fragments’. Where In Between still hesitated between indicating place or time, the complete sentence ‘In Between Reclining Fragments’ seems to indicate a place: somewhere between reclining fragments. But in the conversation between Ritsart and Maarten Inghels – the author of the text accompanying the book – it is again emphatically about time: “‘As you move closer and distance yourself again, a passage of time is created,’ you said. ‘That back-and-forth movement of your perception makes it interesting.’” The book forms the second volume on the artist’s work and contains almost all the works the artist made from late 2020 to mid-2023, including the room views of ‘Prologue’, the exhibition at PLUS-ONE gallery, where the book will be introduced. Consistently, Ritsart continues to build an evocative and tactile oeuvre in which he increasingly challenges the viewer’s perception and causes the gaze to slow down. More than in the first book – with works from 2017 to 2020 – the artist incorporates fragments/citations of other artists into his paintings, raising the question of what motivations preceded that choice. Does Ritsart neutralise the works of grandmasters by painting them alongside tape, paper scraps and dirty footprints, or does he instead pay homage to his pictorial heroes?Is there a truth to be found here, somewhere among the backward sloping scraps?

Abstract

In 1929, Eileen Gray designed Villa E 1027 for herself and her youthful partner Jean Badovici, but only lived there for three years. Today, the elegant house in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin in southern France is an icon of modernism. In 1937, Le Corbusier discovered the place and the “Maison en Bord de Mer”. Inspired by the genius of the place and the light on the Côte d'Azur, he created a total of eight large-format wall paintings there in 1938 and 1939 onwards, some of which complement the building congenially, while others set counterpoints. In 1952, he built his Cabanon nearby and decorated it with murals as well.This book by the well-known architectural historian Tim Benton documents Le Corbusier's artwork at this special place, explores its controversies, and places it in his overall oeuvre.
