<p><strong>GEORGE YOUNG </strong>collects, edits, reproduces and assembles images of cultural artifacts, ephemera and literary fiction. The paintings are simplified and estranged from their previous contexts and coupled with precise, formal structures that extend and respond to the painting environment.</p>
<p>The works are on paper, unframed and are fragile, fragmentary; they’re surface vs. object and seem to be interchangeable and readily moved – a constant revolving until the moment of exhibition.  The wooden structures are dislocated supports or framing devices.  Without their conventional use, they are placed around a space performing new functions or remaining idle.</p>
<p>Each exhibition is a chance to rearrange themes and images to suit each specific space. New arrangements change the context of each painting, the resulting narrative -and our understanding of it- highlighting the malleability of images as meaning makers.</p>

<p>vernissage: jeudi 4 novembre 2009<br />
exposition: du 5 au 28 novembre 2009</h5>
<p>Pieter Laurens Mol, né à Breda (Pays-Bas) en 1946, s’est fait connaître sur la scène internationale par ses photographies conceptuelles réalisées dans les années ‘70 et ‘80, dans lesquelles il se met lui-même en scène dans des situations d’équilibre fragile, aussi bien physique que mental. <span id="more-219"></span>Ces œuvres sont considérées comme des réalisations poétiques et très personnelles au sein du conceptualisme photographique, un mouvement qui apparaît dans les années ‘70 dans l’art contemporain occidental. Son œuvre témoigne d’une grande complexité conceptuelle et offre de multiples niveaux de perception, d’interprétation et de signification. Parfois l’œuvre semble énigmatique, voire hermétique, toutefois une sensibilité accordée à l’importance du hasard, de la chance, de l’accidentel dans le processus artistique, lui donne une force rarement rencontrée dans l’histoire de l’art. Il n’est pas surprenant que la rencontre de Pieter Laurens Mol avec l’œuvre de Marcel Duchamp ait eu un impact important dans son évolution. A travers la poésie du langage, la simplicité des matériaux et des formes, l’utilisation des matériaux en rapport avec leur symbole (le zinc est l’élément de Neptune, par exemple), Mol réalise une œuvre artistique cohérente, toute en subtilité. Pieter Laurens Mol a exposé en Europe et aux Etats-Unis ; son œuvre est largement représentée dans les collections publiques et privées internationales.</p>

<p style="margin: 2.8px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 9.0px Futura Std Light;">
<h5 style="font-size: 0.83em;"><em>“La Salutation Bruxelloise”</em></h5>
<h5>exposition à partir du 6 novembre 2009 sur rendez-vous uniquement<br />
Maison Dotremont, 3 avenue de l’Échevinage, 1180 Bruxelles</h5>
<p><span style="font-weight: normal;">La maison Dotremont, chef d’œuvre de 1931 construit par l’architecte Louis Herman De Koninck, accueille une exposition plus intimiste de Pieter Laurens Mol. Le titre est une référence au premier dessin réalisé par l’artiste lors de son arrivée à Bruxelles en 2006, La Salutation Bruxelloise, qui reflète sa première impression de la capitale. Les autres œuvres exposées sont des pièces issues la période appelée « Moedervlek » (tache de naissance), qui s’échelonne de 1965 à 1975 et qui dévoile un secret bien gardé. Ces œuvres sont des propositions pleines d’humour et de poésie qui titillent l’esprit, interrompues par des textes de l’artiste, comme les annotations d’un journal intime. La sélection des travaux est un ensemble « sur mesure » que le visiteur découvre comme une collection privée soigneusement réfléchie par le propriétaire. « Les circonstances sont privilégiées, si l’on considère l’histoire de la maison Dotremont. Il ne s’agit pas juste d’une quelconque habitation privée, cette maison est une cellule de rêves secrets ! », dit Pieter L. Mol.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The four works all comes from a larger body of work that is a meditation on the novel “Heart of darkness” by Joseph Conrad. All these works circles around post-imperialistic questions, and deals greatly with the concept of pity.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The videos will be installed in special environments built for each of them. One is built into “a forest” with all the poles tattooed with a burning pen, the other is mounted in a shed and the third is built into a velvet curtain room. The sculptural work is a space of offering (see sketch), and can be mounted outdoors if there is such a space.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">In this work, Liv Bugge takes contact with her father and his lead-dog through a telepathic seance with a Congolese animal-interpreter in a hotel-room in Antwerpen. Questions are posed, and the answers reflect as much the interpreter as Bugge herself.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The idea of Hyperborea is a Greek myth about a place beyond the north winds where there is always sunshine. It was regarded the spiritual center of the planet, as there was also a material center close to the South pole (polar myth theory). This theory is anchored in newer esoteric thoughts (H.P. Blavatsky and R. Guénon), but also used by Nazi-theorists explaining why the humans are more and more ”apelike” the more south they live their lives, relating to the distance from the spiritual center of the north pole.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">This work is partly based in one of the last poems of Friedrich Nietzcshe called ”Adrianes Complaint”, where he refers to an incident which marked his life and his started his search for his private ”God”. At 15, he went for a walk in the forest and there he met a huntsman. During the meeting with the hunter Nietzsche faints, and then awakes in his bed. During his writings he often refer to this huntsman as his God. This work is also influenced of the Polar Myth Theory, in which it is thought that once upon a time , before a crash,  the axe of the earth was vertical, and then there was no rotation of the planet, and the north was everlasting sun. After this “hyperborean age”, the Earth was pushed out of orbit and started rotating around itself. The camera switches between hunting and being hunted.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">This work contains partly a visit to the basements of the Africa museum in Tervuren, Brussel, where the largest collection of central-African life is kept, both as stuffed animals and as scientific samples for research. This basement is a document, but can also be regarded a space of death, and a hunting trophy. The text following the images is explanations of how to open and clean poisoned wounds.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The sculptural work is inspired by a shamanistic ritual offering in Siberia, and consists of birch-trees with different dogs (sculptures) / furs hanging from the top.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">This work refers to the central goal of the journey in the novel ”Heart of Darkness”, the inner station, where the house is surrounded by sticks with dried human heads on them. There is also a description by the animal-interpreter of this space in the first video.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Geneva;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">The latest solo-show I did was at Galleri Trafo in august-08, Asker/Oslo, where I showed one of the video-installations that I will show at WE-project, “Hyperborean-room Ballads”.</span></p>

Using for example skulls and bones from dead animals and branches from old trees, gives the work an existential tone.</span></p>

Another video-projector shows an animation of life moving around in the cave. These two pictures blends together as one. In front of the picture on the wall there is some simply built cave walls of cardboard, paper and fabric , that also gets lit up by the projectors. In front of the projected wall a creature lies on the floor. It has the scull of a moose and seems like it is sleeping. Objects like bottles and vases are also present in the cave.  The animation consists of shadow-like drawings where small creatures moves and flies around. I will synchronize the pictures  so it looks like the creatures appears from the objects and corners, and then you see the shadows on the cave walls. There will be a soundscape to the installation.</span></p>

Pandora had a jar that curiosity made her open though she was told by Zeus not to, and so all evil and disease flew out in the world. I am also inspired by Plato’s cave allegory that speaks of what we see as reality and what really is. </span></p>

<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">Chaque oeuvre a son existence propre par son vécu ou le vécu que Finschi lui impose qui sera généré par sa réalisation. Son travail s’affiche indubitablement dans un registre de performance. Mais ces performances sont de l’ordre privé.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Helvetica;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.0px;">L’action qu’il produit en réalisant un dessin nécessite un effort physique dont lui seul est spectateur au même titre que l’objet «readymade» a subi des pressions, des attachements qui dans le temps ont développé sa modification.</span></p>

<p>It has been some years since Paul Casaer produced sculptures. To be more precise, it dates back to 1998, seemingly lightyears in an artist’s existence, but still, here they are once again. In the meantime, photography had been his medium. The photo book in particular, because Paul Casaer’s images need to be read in sequences. Just as in a movie, the things he shows are as important as that which he does not show; the ‘off’-image of the framing, the ‘in-between’ image of the editing.</p>
