Hardcover, 256 pages, ENG, 285 x 225 mm, NEW, with 227 illustrations of which 215 in colour !. ISBN 9789464366907. Mark Manders - Zeno X Gallery, 28 Years of Collaboration offers an overview of the long-standing collaboration between artist Mark Manders ( 1968) and Zeno X Gallery in Antwerp. The publication appears on the occasion of his most recent solo exhibition at the gallery and highlights a number of important exhibitions and special projects for which Manders has been invited at home and abroad from the 1990s to the present. Since 1986, Mark Manders has been working on what he calls "self-portrait as a building". His oeuvre - consisting of installations, sculptures, works on paper and drawings - takes on the metaphor of a fictitious building, subdivided into separate rooms whose precise shape and size cannot be defined. There is no beginning and no end. Manders strives for timelessness and universality by using archetypal forms and familiar-looking materials such as clay, bronze and wood. His bronze sculptures and installations therefore appear more vulnerable than they actually are. With text contributions by Mark Manders, Frank Demaegd (Zeno X Gallery) and Marjolein Sponselee. Publication accompanying the exhibition at Zeno X Gallery, which will take place from September 3 to October 15, 2022.
