Produced on the occasion of Raoul de Keyser’s 1991 exhibition at the Kunsthalle Bern. With texts from Ulrich Loock, Dirk de Vos and Paul Robbrecht.

Raoul De Keyser was a Belgian painter who from 1964 onwards built a highly personal body of work that was exceptionally difficult to categorize; he successfully reconciled a number of apparent contradictions such as figuration versus abstraction and the physicality of paint versus the ephemerality of the image.
