Robin Vermeersch: Entre les plis
In September, Galerie Zwart Huis presents "Entre les plis," the second solo exhibition by Robin Vermeersch (b. 1977) at the gallery. The exhibition includes a series of new paintings, hanging sculptures and several mural reliefs made from various materials such as epoxy, wax, burlap and acrylic polyester. A limited edition in ceramics of 15 pieces will also be presented.
The art of Robin Vermeersch leads you straight to the eye of the hurricane. The spot that stays still and cloudless while the world around it fragments violently. He captures the cutting noise of everyday life and kneads, carves, pours, draws, and models it until it becomes deafeningly silent. Relax, it's just chaos.
The hope and menace in the work sprout from the chaos that is the world around us. The sculptor Hans Arp described it during the World War as follows: 鈥淲hile guns rumbled in the distance, we sang, painted, made collages, and wrote poems with all our might. We were seeking an art based on fundamentals, to cure the madness of this age and to find a new order of things that would restore the balance between heaven and hell鈥�
