Sebastian Hau

In this book, Harry Gruyaert invites us to discover his homeland, Belgium, a country he has been crisscrossing for over sixty years. Flemish by birth, Gruyaert has long known that his native land is “a visually interesting place where incongruous things happen”. His subtle intuition for color, combined with his ability to capture the essence of places, is evident in this large body of images that are both “historical and epicurean”, as writer Brice Matthieussent puts it. A sense of the grotesque, of sarcasm, banality, but also emotion and a certain tenderness are sketched out in images of carnivals, religious processions, café-concerts, small towns bristling with brick houses...

Four portfolios of black and white images, a lesser-known part of the photographer's work, punctuate the visual immersion of this journey to the flat country, on a different paper.

A text by Brice Matthieussent explores Harry Gruyaert's links with his native land, and puts into perspective the evolution of his work between color, light and situation. A QR code at the end of the book allows readers to discover the film Homeland, based on images by Harry Gruyaert, with music by Tuur Floorizone.
