Exhibition Fading

Fading
Focusing on "Fading in the contemporary visual arts", this exhibition brought together, for the first time, the work of 40 very talented Belgian artists 'all of them active on the international art scene' from this particular point of view. Through 90 works of art, "Fading" examined how these artists derived their own critical expression from today's multimedia consumption and information society, exploring the limits of fading in the pictorial space. The exhibition and the book compared the various artistic dimensions involved in the reconstruction of the image. This pictorialism finds its roots in the suggestion of an absence, an insistent presence or the imaginary condition of the work of art.
The exhibition took place from June 25 to September 13, 2009 at the Museum van Elsene.
