In 2021 rondde Yannick Wijnants (Atelier Herkenrode) de restauratie af van de zogenaamde 'Peter Benoit-piano', een concertvleugel van de firma Pleyel, Wolff & Cie uit 1884. Dankzij de restauratie kunnen muziekliefhebbers, voor het eerst in decennia, opnieuw kennismaken met de warme klank van dit schitterende instrument. Sinds de piano in 1895 in Antwerpen arriveerde, heeft hij bovendien een intrigerende band met een van Vlaanderens beroemdste componisten: Peter Benoit (1834-1901). In dit cahier vertellen vier experten meer over de piano, over Peter Benoit en zijn pianorepertoire en over de restauratie.

Theodoor Rombouts (1597-1637) was een gevestigde waarde in het Antwerpse kunstenaarsmilieu van zijn tijd. Na zijn artistieke opleiding bij Abraham Janssen migreerde hij aan het begin van de 17de eeuw naar Itali . Daar liet hij zich inspireren door de revolutionaire schilderkunst van Michelangelo Merisi da Caravaggio en diens belangrijkste navolgers uit Itali , Frankrijk en de Lage Landen. Terug in Antwerpen ontwikkelde hij een geheel eigen artistieke identiteit. Rombouts wist invloeden uit Noord en Zuid op virtuoze wijze te versmelten en specialiseerde zich succesvol als caravaggistisch figuurschilder in monumentale genrevoorstellingen. Rombouts' huidige relatieve onbekendheid staat in schril contrast met het respect en de waardering die tijdgenoten als Peter Paul Rubens en Anthony van Dyck voor hem als schilder hadden. Dit boek, het eerste boek ooit over Theodoor Rombouts, ontsluiert zijn artistieke persoonlijkheid en brengt een nieuwe kijk op zijn werk.

?In Der Minne?, the highly anticipated photographic art project by Tim Tronckoe featuring Colin H. Van Eeckhout (Amenra), honouring the works by Belgian sculptor and draftsman George Minne. ?In Der Minne? is a black and white photography project, focusing on human tragedy. Being an undeniably relevant theme, Tim starts from the sculptural work by 19th century Minne, to transpose his themes onto the photographic medium, using Colin as a medium to echo the feelings of pain, loss and grief. Tim?s ambitious project has landed him into this book, a museum launch and a gallery show most creatives can only dream of.

In april 2019 verhuist Tim Van Laere Gallery naar het Antwerpse Nieuw Zuid. Voor de deuren van de Verlatstraat definitief dicht gaan, organiseert Van Laere er nog een laatste afscheidstentoonstelling, getiteld The Last Waltz (For Leon). De tentoonstelling is een feestelijke afsluiter van een periode van 20 jaar waarin vriendschap, kwalitatieve tentoonstellingen en plezier centraal stonden. Alle kunstenaars die de voorbije twintig jaar de ruimte mee hebben bepaald met opvallende tentoonstellingen krijgen een plek in deze expo. Zowel grote namen die de galerie mee op de kaart geplaatst hebben als Rinus Van de Velde, Kati Heck, Adrian Ghenie, Jonathan Meese en Franz West dus, maar ook nieuwe talenten als Tomasz Kowalski, Ben Sledsens, Ryan Mosley of Anke Weyer komen aan bod in de expo.

Tim Van Laere Gallery presents A Life in A Day, Rinus Van de Velde's seventh solo exhibition at the gallery. In this exhibition, the artist not only presents new drawings in oil pastel, colored pencil, and charcoal but also premieres his third film, A Life in A Day, along with a selection of sculptures featured in the film.. Rinus Van de Velde's oeuvre reads like a multiverse, in which different storylines always run parallel to one another. He has already created several alter egos that allow him to appropriate different personas and explore worlds that do not (yet) belong to him. Throughout these different worlds, the constant anchor point is the artist himself. Through impersonations, constructed lies, and appropriations, he comes closer to uncovering the truth about his own identity and artistry. His latest film also mirrors this process. In his debut film, The Villagers, Van de Velde started from a predefined narrative, in which the artist himself played a small role as spectator. That narrative already evolved into a more abstract form in his second film, La Ruta Natural. For this film, the artist had a mask made in his likeness allowing one of his assistants to embody the artist?s role. This allowed Van de Velde to observe himself from a distance and portray and analyze his artistry. This same mask reappears in A Life in A Day. While La Ruta Natural?s storyline focused on the creation and destruction of his various alter egos, A Life in A Day delves into Van de Velde's artistry in a more intimate and pure way, inviting us to partake in the artist's inner process. The film opens with a very mundane scene where the artist wakes up, gets dressed, and then walks out the door with his briefcase to start his day. The motif of the briefcase plays an important role here as the depiction of a bundle of thoughts, ideas, and visualizations. It also plays an important role in the encounter between the artist and his gallerist Tim Van Laere, with the briefcase symbolising the dialogue between the two figures. After his daily activities, the artist then enters his imaginary universe, where he walks into a natural scenery. Here, in his solitude, the artist finds a moment of peace and takes his place like a pleinairist to create new work. This desire is visible in the oil pastel drawings in the first space of the exhibition, where the majority focuses on natural landscapes. Then he takes a shortcut to an underground, deeply hidden space, where we find the artist's inner vault. Within this archive, the artist meticulously organizes all his ideas, thoughts, images, and texts. This process of exploration, deepening, appropriating, and reinventing also resonates within the exhibition, where charcoal, oil pastel, colored pencil drawings, and sculptures are showcased. All of these works speak volumes about the artist: about his ambitions, doubts, concerns, his moments of happiness, but also of loneliness, frustration, and sadness. The predominance of the artist's personal voice in all his works makes it possible for him to appropriate any style, without losing his own identity in it. Works by Picasso, Van Gogh, Ensor, Matisse, Armen Eloyan, and Alfred Wallis are unmistakably redirected to a Rinus Van de Velde. The fact that the artist looks a lot to his predecessors and also immerses himself completely in their work is also portrayed in his latest film, in which he defies gravity while climbing through a hatch into a swimming pool that refers to David Hockney. In this scene, too, Van de Velde appropriates the pool by the simple act of washing out his brushes in the pool, resulting in a transformation of the water?s hue. Rinus Van de Velde (b. 1983 in Leuven, Belgium) lives and works in Antwerp. Work by the artist is in several international collections, including S.M.A.K. (Ghent), M HKA (Antwerp), Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (Brussels), CAC (Malaga), Kunstmuseum Luzern (Lucerne), FRAC des Pays De La Loire (Nantes), Museum Voorlinden (Wassenaar), Kunstmuseum (The Hague), AZ Artgestion Collection (Bilbao), Kunsthalle Sao Paolo (Sao Paolo), KWM Art Center (Shangai), KPN Art Collection (Netherlands), Stad Antwerpen (Antwerp), Erasmus University (Rotterdam), Belfius Art Collection (Brussels) and Colleccion Solo (Madrid).

Friedrich Kunath's werk is doordrongen van ambigu teit. Zijn werk is be nvloedt door de cultuur van de wijsheid en de populaire cultuur, tot het punt van obsessie en soms zelfs systematisering. Zijn persoonlijke reis van Oost- naar West-Berlijn, naar zijn nieuwe thuis in Los Angeles, presenteerde Kunath met een breed scala aan bronnenmateriaal, vari rend van de canon van de kunstgeschiedenis en de Duitse filosofie tot het idioom van de kitsch en de make-believe wereld van Hollywood en Los Angeles. Kunath?s werk gaat over de universele thema?s van het menselijk bestaan, zoals liefde, verlies, optimisme, kwetsbaarheid en melancholie. Zijn oeuvre omvat verschillende media, van schilderen, beeldhouwen, tekenen, video en fotografie tot uitgebreide installaties, allemaal voorzien van een tragikomisch pathos en dromen over mogelijkheden. In bijna elk werk is het besef voelbaar dat de wereld een schouwspel is van onvervulde dromen, waarin de rauwheid van het leven wordt ontvlucht via het parallelle universum van de populaire cultuur. Zonder zich vast te houden aan oppervlakkige humor, maakt Kunath gebruik van het groteske en uitvergrotingen in zijn werken. Zijn sculpturen, schilderijen of gedetailleerde tekeningen en karikaturen zijn geen onschuldige grappen, maar eerder ambigue metaforen voor het heden. Hij onderzoekt de vraag naar zelfpositionering binnen het kader van verschillende culturele invloeden met de nodige ironie. Zijn werken ondergraven ingesleten beeldtradities en conventies en verbinden het schijnbare onverenigbare zoals humor en melancholie, narratie en abstractie of fictie en realiteit.

Enjoy and Take Care aantalIn winkelmand In maart 2020 werd ons leven op pauze gezet. Het uitbreken van de wereldwijde pandemie veroorzaakt door het virus COVID-19 dwong landen van over heel de wereld om nieuwe strategie n uit te vinden om de verspreiding van de ziekte tegen te gaan. Dit resulteerde in lockdowns, het sluiten van alle internationale grenzen en social distancing. In lijn met de door de regering vastgestelde maatregelen sloot Tim Van Laere Gallery de galerie voor het eerst sinds de oprichting in 1997 voor meer dan een maand voor het publiek. Na deze periode vond de galerie het belangrijk om het leven en de kunst opnieuw te vieren en besloot een groepsshow samen te stellen met bijna alle kunstenaars van de galerie. Hoewel reisrestricties nog steeds actief zijn, bracht deze groepsshow op een manier de kunstenaars via hun werk weer bij elkaar. De titel van de show ?Enjoy and Take Care!? versterkt dit gevoel van feest, solidariteit en samenhorigheid /// Enjoy and Take Care quantity In March 2020 our lives were put on hold. The outbreak of the global pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus forced countries around the world to invent new strategies to combat the spread of the disease. This resulted in lockdowns, the closing of all international borders and social distancing. In line with governmental measures, Tim Van Laere Gallery closed the gallery to the public for more than a month for the first time since its inception in 1997. After this period, the gallery felt it was important to re-celebrate life and art and decided to put together a group show featuring almost all of the gallery's artists. Although travel restrictions are still active, this group show in a way brought the artists back together through their work. The show's title "Enjoy and Take Care!" Reinforces this sense of celebration, solidarity and togetherness

The catalog to the third solo exhibition by the internationally acclaimed Austrian artist Franz West ( 1947, Vienna 2012, Vienna) at Tim Van Laere Gallery. West is without doubt one of the most important sculptors and environment artists of contemporary art. His oeuvre is characterized not only by the forms he invents, but also for the communicative quality with which he directly addresses the viewer, urging him/ her to participate. The exhibition brings together various aspects from the broad oeuvre of Franz West. Both collages, sculptures from papier-m ch , plaster and polyester, furniture, an outdoor sculpture in aluminium and installations from different periods of his career are shown. In the mid-1970s, West made his so-called Pa st cke (Adaptives), movable sculptures made of plaster and metal that were intended to be moved, touched, and handled ? transforming viewers into participants. For West, the essence of the artwork is not the aesthetic quality, but how the work is used. These objects stimulate the ingenuity of the public and disrupt conditioned behavior in the exhibition space. From the 80s, he incorporated more fragile materials, such as papier-m ch and glass bottles in his sculptures, which he combined in the Labst cke (Refresher Pieces). As a consistent continuation of the Pa st cke, West has been working since 1987 to construct furniture for sitting and reclining, using prefabricated elements and discarded industrial products which he covered by stretching fabrics or carpets over them. His work makes us think about our living space and the social and personal activities that are happening there. The artist aims to create a certain interaction between artwork and viewer, between object and subject. An interaction that must ensure that art becomes an open and interactive process. Later in his career, Franz West also focuses on sculptures in the public space. In fall 2018, a major retrospective will open at the Centre Pompidou, Paris, and will travel to the Tate Modern, London the following year.

BRAM DEMUNTERB urrowers, Climbers, Crawlers30 November, 2023 - 20 January, 2024 INSTALLATION VIEWS WORKS Tim Van Laere Gallery presents the second solo exhibition by Bram Demunter, titled Burrowers, Climbers, Crawlers. Bram Demunter's work is about us, human beings, and about the place we occupy in the world. It is about the mythologies we shape around ourselves, the narratives and the visual cultures we create, as well as the traces we leave behind in the natural world. His paintings and drawings strongly illustrate his process of collecting, examining and categorizing different elements. The artist can spend many hours studying an object, while wondering where it came from and what history it has been gone through. These objects then manage to nestle in his subconscious, establishing new connections between obscure stories, tales, legends and myths with forgotten symbolism, which he seamlessly connects to more recent events. His oeuvre does not convey an unambiguous message, but rather weaves meanings that resonate with individual and collective memories whereby a depicted motif reminds us of countless other images. His references do not focus on specific symbols or archetypes and must not be mistaken as unequivocal allusions. In doing so, the artist emphasizes that all things can exist simultaneously and can be displayed as such. This phenomenon is clearly demonstrated in his work Turn the Mud Around, where Demunter makes use of an eclectic range of influences and sources: ranging from the late Middle Ages to the Flemish Primitives as well as the impasto of seventeenth-century artists like Rubens and Jordaens. His artistic affiliations, such as his depiction of landscapes and other scenes of nature in some of his paintings, seem to originate from Italian Renaissance painting and and are reminiscent of the sfumato technique of that period. His imagery extends far beyond classical influences; it is infused with elements of twentieth-century abstract expressionism including artists such as Philip Guston, neo-expressionist Georg Baselitz and Grandma Moses. In addition, Demunter embraces the refinement of Indian miniature art, the splendor of Persian and Indian tapestries, alongside the intimacy of Enclosed Gardens. For this exhibition, Demunter drew inspiration from obscure maps and old books, diving deep into human history in search of handed-down traces of interaction with nature. Rocks are therefore an important theme in his work, and take the form of mountains, rock formations, caves, meteorites, thereby embodying ancient symbolism. The diversity of symbols reveals the deep-rooted human fascination with nature across epochs and cultures. Instead of using maps as merely representational tools, Demunter exploits them as sources that capture the human interaction with the world. Demunter's approach is not limited to visual compositions, but extends far beyond words: each work, whether drawn, painted or written, forms an exploratory journey, which transcends time and space; his images suspend time, as it were. Bram Demunter (b. 1993, Kortrijk) lives and works in Kortrijk, Belgium. Work of the artist can be found in several national and international collections. ?

Tim Van Laere Gallery volgt de filosofie van een artist?s gallery, waar het faciliteren en begeleiden van kunstenaars op de eerste plaats staat. Over de jaren heeft Tim Van Laere, samen zijn director Elke Segers en het TVLG team, een sterk programma uitgebouwd met een reeks memorabele solotentoonstellingen. Naarmate de ambities van de galerie en haar kunstenaars groeiden, werd het steeds voelbaarder dat de ruimte in de Verlatstraat niet meer voldeed om mee te groeien met de evolutie van de kunstenaars. Tim Van Laere droomde al langer van een eigen galerie te bouwen als losstaand paviljoen dat helemaal op maat van de kunst werd ontworpen. Die droom wist hij waar te maken via de samenwerking met OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen en projectontwikkelaar Triple Living op Nieuw Zuid. De galerie opende met de tentoonstelling KUNST KUNST KUNST, een groepstentoonstelling waarbij Adrian Ghenie, Jonathan Meese en Rinus Van de Velde met elkaars visie werden geconfronteerd. Verschillende media werden getoond zoals schilderijen, sculpturen en tekeningen.
