An important figure on the new Belgian art scene, Jan De Cock (b. 1976) presents a new project of great magnitude in Brussels. A series of sculptures and photographs specially conceived for the exhibition are on display in one of the main exhibition circuits in the Centre for Fine Arts. Each room and each stage of the exhibition is to be experienced like a sequence in an imaginary film. De Cock sculpts the space and questions our perceptions. He draws, with this exhibition, from the cinema, playing with movement, repetition and reproduction. After his famous series “Denkmal”, he presents us here with a whole new era in his work.
At the age of 32, this artist’s career is exceptional. His work has already been exhibited in the Tate Modern in London and in the MoMA in New York. Repromotion will then be reproduced, using photography, to be shown at the Magasin de Grenoble in the first quarter of 2010. |
