lectures

Coming Tuesday 30 March, I have been invited to give a series of lectures about my student short film 'erzebet' at the cypresgallery in Leuven. 'Erszebet' was included in the Selection of works at this year's Kulturama art festival. My film caught some attention, and CJP invited me to give the lectures to an audience of young adults.

I am looking forward to it!

this weekend in Leuven there is an arts festival, called Kulturama.
Erszebet is part of this city-wide exhibition. a limited edition dvd of the my graduationproject "erszebet" has been created for these purposes, for sale in the Cypresgalerie.

besides paintings, i also collect alot of strong images.
there seem te be several things i'm drawn to. someday I will demonstrate by expanding
my blogging experience. soon, i should start promoting myself seriously. my work is coming together, finally.
I can't promise much material, but i have set foot in the right direction. hopefully i'll be able to get some attention from gallerys then.

on that note, probably in februari, there will be an exhibition in Leuven, Belgium, about erszebet.

here is one of these incredible powerfull images,
it might also be a taste of things to come:
it is a filmstill from battleship potemkin, from eisenstein,
printed out by bacon on a small sheet of cardboard,
the decay of the cardboard adds an extra dimension

i'm actually proud of this frame from my film,
hence the reason for posting an older work

here's something i painted quickly while working on my film, 'erszebet'. there was this amazing sunlight falling down on a parkinglot, through an emergency door, in my studio.
i have an exposition right now, in the departement where i graduated, and i rediscovered this oil-sketch

dankzij yannick D. uit W kwam het volgende artikel in mijn handen gewaaid.
ik werd geinterviewd, in die 15 minutes of fame van me, maar had het artikel nooit gezien. dankjewel Y. Desmet.
pikant detail: mijn artikel stond volop tussen de vele, vele doodsberichten die deze maand december kleurden.
