Description from the seller
Peter Van Ammel (1976) – Behind the scenes of art lies the sobriety – 2010
Original paper work by the Belgian artist Peter Van Ammel (born 1976), dated 2010.
The work combines collage, a photographic image, printmaking and handwritten text. At the top in red:
“Achter de coulissen van de kunst woont de ontnuchtering”
At the bottom the work is signed in pencil “Van Ammel 2010”.
The paper used contains older printed text referring to an exhibition within the framework of the Belgian-Spanish Cultural Agreement and the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium. Van Ammel uses this existing material as a carrier and adds image and text to it.
This combination of art-historical references, humor, word and image is characteristic of Peter Van Ammel’s oeuvre. His work frequently questions the art world and the conventions of painting. Works by Van Ammel are among others in the collection of the Flemish Community, kept at Mu.ZEE. (Vlaanderen.be)
