Produced on the occasion of Liam Gillick’s exhibition 1 Rue Gabriel Tarde, Sarlat-La-Canéda, Dordogne at Micheline Szwajcer Gallery, Antwerp, 21 March–18 April, 2015.

Liam Gillick is known for contributions in sculpture, video, architecture and text. His work focuses on contemporary management of labor, time, and aesthetics extended through a distinctive conception of exhibition as a medium in its own right. His work is divided between abstraction based on social and political structures of the present and texts, films and graphics that often appear to contradict and comment upon the apparent clarity of his structures.

Paul Outerbridge, Jr. emerged in the 1920s as a bold innovator, transforming ordinary objects, such as milk bottles, collars, eggs, into fractured Cubist constructions of light and form. His platinum and silver gelatin prints reduced subjects to intersecting planes and geometric rhythms, revealing a structural beauty aligned with the avant-garde movements of his time.

The Swiss photographer Werner Bischof started his career in studio photography in Zürich and later documented Europe in the aftermath of World War II. He joined the famous photographers group Magnum Photos in 1949 and travelled the world.

Disliking the ‘superficiality and sensationalism of the magazine business, he devoted much of his working life to looking for order and tranquility in traditional culture, something that did not endear him to picture editors looking for hot topical material. Bischof died at the early age of 38 in a car accident in the Andes of Peru.

Produced on the occasion of the exhibition Guy Mees at Micheline Szwajcer Gallery, Antwerp, 9 September–22 October, 2016.

Guy Mees’s (1935–2003) photographs, videos, and above all his fragile works on paper are characterised by a formal rigour combined with sensitivity and delicacy. The uniqueness of his oeuvre lies precisely in its avoidance of conventional aesthetics and discursive classifications. A leading figure of the Belgian avant-garde, Mees left behind an outstanding body of work that transgresses geometric abstraction, Minimalism, Conceptualism, and applied art.
