Antoon de Clerck - Museum to scale (o)

Explore the intriguing world of Antoon De Clerck with this silkscreen, numbered 954 of a limited edition of 999. Titled "Museum to scale," this work reflects De Clerck's unique vision, which takes his images out of their familiar surroundings and focuses on specific elements. His interest in spatial structure and capturing the image components within their cosmic context gives this work a depth that invites contemplation.
From 1972 onwards, De Clerck began to focus more on a strongly realistic representation, which led to a wrong cataloguing as a hyperrealist. However, his withdrawal into his own biotope in the late eighties resulted in a greater deepening and spiritualization of his work. For more than fifty years he has developed his authentic vision of man and society, using his optimistic attitude to life to transform everyday events into a dream world.
Antoon De Clerck, who died of a heart attack on 10 December 2001, left behind a considerable oeuvre that has acquired a permanent place within the rich tradition of Flemish painting. His works can be found in private collections and museums, including the Municipal Museum of Contemporary Art in Ghent, the Provincial Museum of Modern Art in Ostend, and the Museum of Deinze and the Leie Region.
