JONAS CALLAERT - IT ALL STARTED WITH DIRTY DANCING
Jonas Callaert - It all started with dirty dancing Art Gallery De Wael 15 19.10 - 17.11.2024
Between abstraction and realism, the escapism of the landscape in Jonas Callaert's (1988, Aalst, BE) work.
The exhibition "It all started with Dirty Dancing" by Jonas Callaert at Galerie De Wael 15 offers an intriguing look at the relationship between painting and landscape. Callaert, a graduate of St. Lucas in Ghent, investigates in his work not so much the landscape as a recognizable place, but as a concept and experience. His paintings are not direct representations of nature; rather, they question the role of painting in representing landscapes.
