Mouvement Solitaire

You are kindly invited to the vitrine-expo ‘Mouvement Solitaire’, which runs until April 15th 2018 in Ostend.
This date is not chosen by chance, this is also the end of the exhibition ‘The Raft, Art Is (Not) Lonely, curated by Jan Fabre and Joanna De Vos.

‘Mouvement Solitaire’ is my intervention right opposite the Europacenter, one of the top locations in this expo.
Everything started with an email I sent to the organisation of ‘The Raft’ after they contacted us concerning the use of apartment number 340 in the Europacenter.

I created a special website for this intervention where you can read the mail – that i consider a work –  and see some images: www.mouvementsolitaire.com

Mouvement Solitaire – until 15/04/2018 – Van Iseghemlaan 53 – 8400 Ostend (Not in the Europacenter, but in front of it).
(on display: a painting, a video installation and an assemblage)

 

Haneke

“Of je nu schrijver, schilder of maker bent. Je verkeert in een staat van permanente ontevredenheid. Omdat je nooit in staat bent een werk te scheppen dat voldoet aan je eigen verwachtingen en omdat die verwachtingen ook nog eens lager kunnen zijn dan het ongevormde verlangen dat je tracht te scheppen. Het beste is altijd weer hetgeen waar je niet bewust naar op zoek was, hetgeen je tijdens het maken overkwam.”

Michael Haneke (in De Morgen over zijn nieuwe film Happy End – 16 november 2017)
