The Axel Vervoordt Company is pleased to present our Winter Exhibition 2015, which will be held at Kanaal from November 27-29, 2015. As the Kanaal continues its daily evolution into a city in the country complete with apartments, shops and offices along the serene waterway, we invite you to explore the most recent developments, such as our new office spaces and the buildings in progress, surrounded by fresh landscaping.
During the exhibition, the concrete silos will feature a diverse selection of contemporary art installations, with work from various artists including Tatsuro Miyajima, Marina Abramovich, Conrad Shawcross and Kimsooja.
For the first time, it will be possible to explore an apartment in the new part of the silo building and a solo show from the famous Korean potter, Kwon Dae Sup, with contemporary Moon Jars. They are a representation of the epitome of the austere Confucian virtues of purity, honesty and modesty. The beauty of form is highlighted by the slight imperfections in its creation, a celebration of nature taking its course. These vessels, with their pure shape, have been revered by the Korean people for hundreds of years, and still resonate today.
Our Antwerp gallery has a current exhibition by Dominique Stroobant. As an artist renowned for his pragmatic ingenuity and passionate drive for self-expression, Stroobant’s work includes numerous sculptures, photographs, drawings, illustrations, texts and Land Art works.
