Zusammenfassung: | As indicated by the title of this exhibition catalogue, the theme of Malcolm Morley?s recent work is history and, more specifically, war and conflict. The paintings can be viewed as the multi-layered products of a complex process of historical deconstruction and reconstruction, immersing the viewer in a vibrant historical universe where past and present merge, fusing anachronistic elements into a unified whole. As World War I biplanes fly over Spanish galleons, and scenes from pivotal battles in British and American history play out, it is clear that Morley?s sources of inspiration are the models and figures he has collected over the years, from jousting knights to Native Americans. Exhibition: Xavier Hufkens, Brussels, Belgium (18.11.-17.12.2016) |
