Richting Porseleinkast

2009-09-30T10:59:00.002+02:00

What is the impact of Facebook on the artistic-creative system? Vlokt all together to a few broad spots where everyone knows everyone, everyone and anyone regardless of nationality or age affected? Or the chaos, the diversity within 'groups' actually increased and that just fun? Do we self-destructive ghetto-formation, or break here and a traditional scary scene and decided to just open in unexpected directions? Everything remains the status quo and is now just visible, that we-know-artistic types among us? Are this the right questions while the world is full of urgencies?

The new project Richting Porseleinkast of the successful administrator Lieven Cateau is almost exclusively a Facebook event. The project launches, the invitations, the whole organization is known within the social networking application run. The result can be seen during the first weekend of October 2009.

1-2-x-4

2007-12-26T23:35:00.001+01:00

Under the denominator 'Changement Régulier' the first floor of block E of the Léopold barracks, the building where my studio is established, became each time embellished with a work of myself and changed on regular basis. More than twenty works have been exposed for a period of a year and brought extra colour and live into the building, which offers access to visual artists and mucisians. Althought the initiative could count on a lot of positive responses, this project finishes with a negative note.

The last work that was exhibitioned was a polyptych (50 x 200 cm., oil on canvas) and never shown before. Here the painting is see entirely still on archive image, but unfortuneatly the third panel is stolen.

Of the robber is lacking any track at the moment. The painting has been seen last in completeness on Sunday evening 23 December 2007, but since Tuesday morning 25 December that could have been no longer said. The separate panel is worthless and it's also not signed.
