Programme
CONVERGENCES
Bringing together four artists in a dialogue across generations and mediums, the exhibition highlights the legacy of François Morellet (1926–2016, Cholet, FR), a major figure of concrete and minimal art. Throughout his life, he explored geometry, systems, and chance, paving the way for generations of artists and leaving a lasting influence on contemporary creation. His conceptual rigor and inventive freedom resonate directly with the works presented by today’s artists.
Charlotte vander Borght (1988, Brussels, BE) extends this reflection by diverting industrial materials that she subjects to constructive rigor while imbuing them with poetic and symbolic meaning. Alain Biltereyst (1965, Brussels, BE), for his part, draws inspiration from the graphic language of urban and commercial signage, which he translates into abstract compositions with subtle rhythms, oscillating between familiarity and pure abstraction. Finally, Olaf Holzapfel (1969, Görlitz, DE) explores the relationship between nature and culture, working with wood, straw, and architectural structures that he transforms into genuine plastic languages.
