The exhibition Behind Images opens on Friday 15 November 2013 at 20.00 hrs.
There is a grey area between the abstract imagination and the actual art object.
The group exhibition Behind Images deals with this battle between intuition and ratio in which emotions, coincidence and context play an important role. How is the invisible made visible by the visual artist? What is hidden behind the reality that we can observe?
In Behind Images, six visual artists are looking for the underlying truth. Their work is no longer a representation of a reality they observed. Their work is a new reality, guided by their emotions and imagination. When has the art object been contrived and when has it been ‘freely’ created?
Drawings, sculptures and paintings illustrate this very fine line between emotions and ratio.
