▪️Opening / Sunday, November 22, 3-6 pm at TATJANA PIETERS, Ghent
▪️Exhibition Hours / September 27 - November 15, Wednesday - Sunday, 2 - 6 pm
In the lead-up to Hans Vandekerckhove’s 70th birthday, TATJANA PIETERS revisits his landmark 2020 exhibition, 'Voltaire’s Advice'.
Inspired by Voltaire’s famous line from Candide—'Il faut cultiver notre jardin' (we must cultivate our own garden)—the exhibition expands Vandekerckhove’s intimate focus on studios, historic greenhouses, and solitary walks into a museum-grade dialogue. A substantial monographic core of his luminous, layered paintings anchors the show, exploring structural containment and the urge to build a protective sanctuary. Flanking his universe are international satellite artists examining the friction between humanity, space, and nature.
Featuring: Hans Vandekerckhove, Alina Bliumis, Alex Cecchetti, Ilke Cop, Audrey Cottin, Charles Degeyter, Nina de Vroome, Anneke Eussen, Fran Van Coppenolle, Eli de Haas, Indrikis Gelzis, Elizabeth Ibarra, Anne Marie Laureys,Kevin McNamee-Tweed, Dietrich Meyer, Paul Pretzer, Adèle Renault, Diana Scherer, Helmut Stallaerts, Derek Sullivan, and Chantal van Rijt.
