During their studies the students learn the basics of producing fabric and clothes, dying and yarning with traditional manners and sophisticated technolgies. The excelent equipped ultra-modern university on the one hand and the cosmopolitan city on the other hand form an innovative source of inspiration and creativity.

U bent van harte uitgenodigd op de opening van de wintertentoonstellingen in de Verbeke Foundation in Kemzeke op zaterdag 29 november vanaf 18 u. Dan wordt de monografie over het werk van Paul Van Hoeydonck voorgesteld. Vanaf 19 u. opent ‘G58-G59 Mass-akker’.

 

De jonge kunstenaar Geoffrey de Beer wil doctoreren in de kunsten rond het thema kunstenaarsnetwerken; hoe die 50 jaar geleden ontstonden en hoe deze te vertalen zijn naar vandaag. Hij krijgt nu van Geert en Carla Verbeke met de expo ‘G58-G59 Mass-akker’, de nieuwe winterpresentatie in de Verbeke Foundation, de mogelijkheid een eerste visueel experiment uit te voeren.  Verschillende kleine exposities met meer dan 100 kunstenaars en kunstenaars(collectieven) spelen in op de avant-garde van 50 jaar geleden met als historische referentiefiguur Paul Van Hoeydonck.

Christoph Broich shows at galerie Griesmar-Tamer in Paris untill February 16th

40, rue de Richelieu
75001 Paris (metro Palais Royal - Louvre)

Voloptuous Panic is the sixth and last room. Inspired by Weimar bacchanalia, (the title is taken from Mel Gordon's book on Weimar Berlin,) Christoph Broich‘s curious manipulated, sculpted elements populate a weirdly decadent environment. Suspended from the ceiling and spatially isolated through perspectival techniques, Broich’s skinned sculptures focus on deterioration and present the reversal of the natural process: skin and flesh decomposing first and the skeleton remaining.
