Minnezang
In "Minnezang" reikt Kurt De Boodt naar de sterren. Met Minne als klassieke gids komt hij uit in het lyrische hart van de taal en krijgt zijn zang kosmische allure. Dante ging met zijn 'Paradiso' de ruimte in. Zijn visie op het universum is grandioos achterhaald, maar zijn gedicht blijft. De spanning tussen het geloof in het bovennatuurlijke en de wetenschap is alleen maar toegenomen nu het universum onwaarschijnlijk groter blijkt te zijn, ja eindeloos is - want voortdurend uitdijt.
Resist!
"Besides his work with the stars, Schapiro and his camera accompanied the greatest political and social upheavals of the sixties and seventies. These photographs have also achieved iconic status. " - Matthias Harder, head curator of the Helmut Newton Foundation in Berlin. In May 1968, students in Paris take to the streets to protest against conservatism and moralism. Resist! looks back at that protest, then to the Prague Spring, the Vietnam war, the Civil Rights Movement in the United States, and the African struggle for independence. The book is a collection of the visual heritage of that period and includes some of the most iconic images from that time, making it very clear just how the pr...
Roger Raveel: Retrospection
An extensive retrospective dedicated to Roger Raveel (1921-2013), one of the most important Belgian painters of the second half of the 20th century Commemorating the centenary of the artist's birth in 2021, the Centre for Fine Arts - BOZAR will present an extensive retrospective dedicated to Roger Raveel (1921-2013), considered one of the most important Belgian painters of the second half of the twentieth century. While belonging to the generation of artists that emerged following the Second World War, flanked by Magritte and Panamarenko, Raveel radically defended his own independence from the values commonly associated with this generation, notably the supposed superiority of internationality over all forms of local anchorage. In today's context of globalized art and its associated stereotypes, Raveel's choice to draw inspiration from his immediate, intimate surroundings--while always being very well informed about trends in the international art scene--now seems revolutionary, even prophetic. Showcasing some 120 artworks from public and private collections, this catalogue seeks to demonstrate the singularity of Raveel's pictorial language as it took form over time.
14/18 – Rupture or Continuity
The impact of the Great War and its aftermath on Belgian artistic life World War I had a major effect on Belgian visual arts. German occupation, the horror at the battlefield and the experience of exile led to multiple narratives and artistic expressions by Belgian artists during and after the war. Belgian interbellum art is extremely vibrant and diverse. 14/18 – Rupture or Continuity takes a look at Belgian artistic life in the years around the First World War and how it was affected by this event. The Great War was a catalyst of artistic oppositions, leading on the one hand to a Belgian avant-garde that explored new forms and styles, while continuing to uphold a more traditional and established art on the other. Whereas the war experience consolidated an already present style for some artists, for others it constituted a revolution leading to new artistic adventures. The collection of essays in the present book highlights these contrasting facets of Belgian art in its rich historical context during the early 20th century.

Sterven in het bed waarin ik geboren ben
De schilder en boer Felix de Boeck (1898-1995) presenteerde zich graag als mystiek aangelegde eenling. Op zijn boerderij in Drogenbos, nabij Brussel, leefde hij op afstand van de artistieke ontwikkelingen in de hoofdstad. In tv-programma’s als Ten huize van of in zijn memoires ‘Mijn leven en werk’ benadrukte hij dat hij wilde ‘sterven in het bed waarin ik geboren ben’. Toch verwierp hij het romantische beeld van de schilderende boer. Het boerenbestaan was voor hem juist een manier om zijn onafhankelijkheid als kunstenaar te waarborgen. De Boeck maakte als volwassene twee wereldoorlogen mee. Hij ontving een groot aantal schilders, dichters en politici op zijn boerderij en maakte por...

Now More Than Ever
The aim of the International Aldous Huxley Centenary Symposium held at the University of Münster from 26 to 29 June 1994 was to discuss Huxley's mature achievement as a modern writer and thinker, concentrating on his later works from the thirties onwards. The Proceedings comprise 21 essays by European, American and Asian Huxley experts, arranged in six thematic groups, viz. «Biography», «Genre and Beyond», «Society and Politics», «Aldous Huxley's Critique of Pure Utopian Thought», «Religion», and «Philosophy». The volume opens with an hitherto unpublished memoir of Huxley by a well-known fellow writer, Robert Payne, dating back to 1948, and several contributors draw on rediscovered Huxley material, such as essays written in the thirties, the typescript of his last Utopia Island and his unpublished play Now More Than Ever (1932). Two indices of names and terms facilitate access to the present state of Huxley scholarship.
