Unfolded Structures of Exchange
Hans Demeulenaere/Nikolaas Demoen/Marc Nagtzaam
presentation of a new publication by Roma Publications
A red rectangular frame that is part of an installation by Hans Demeulenaere at the exhibition One way or another, 10 years of Posture Editions in S.M.A.K. (30.10 - 28.11.2021) remains behind in the museum due to the artist's forgetfulness.
This absent-mindedness forms the starting point for the exhibition Unfolding Structures of Exchange. What happens when three artists exchange this red nomadic frame among themselves and shape it to their sculptural, drawing, and choreographic hand?
The exhibition is formed around a long folded paravent and is a mirror of the folded leporello with the same title, published by Roma Publications.
This book is presented at the opening of the exhibition. On the occasion of the exhibition, the artists each made an artist's edition in 20 copies.

Cut Down Build Up
Hans Demeulenaere/Thierry Lagrange/Dimitri Vangrunderbeek
presentation of a new publication by MER. Books, Art imprint of Borgerhoff & Lamberigts
Cut Down Build Up explores a creative process between two visual artists and an architect, focusing on the relation between abstraction and architecture. Rather than taking a traditional academic approach, these three creators engage in an iterative process of anticipation, reaction, and creation.
They exchange ideas and works, leading to three unique explorative and productive dialogues.
Abstraction, a common concept in visual arts, is less frequently associated with architecture. The interactions between the artists (Dimitri Vangrunderbeek and Hans Demeulenaere) and the architect (Thierry Lagrange) result in new spatial insights and deepen the understanding of abstraction. These insights are embedded in the creations themselves and in the dynamic exchanges between the participants.
The book and its dialogues are an invitation towards the viewer to fully experience and appreciate the handling of abstraction within the context of architecture and visual arts.

A Good Circle Makes A Good Square
Hans Demeulenaere & Samyra Moumouh
presentation of a new publication
Hans Demeulenaere and Samya Moumouh have developed a new project, invited by Radicale 1924, in Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, resulting in fourteen unique objects and an artist's book. These pieces, reminiscent of Donald Judd's specific objects, are difficult to classify solely as sculptures or design objects. Each object is carefully crafted from green water-resistant particle board and consistently showcases the shapes of a circle and a square. The designs are inspired by various types of furniture, including chairs, stools, tables, and pedestals. They draw from the work of several notable creators, including architects, artists, and interior designers. Among the sources of inspiration are Gerrit Rietveld's iconic side table, a piece by Manfred Pernice, and a work by Constantin Brancusi.
The publication ‘A Good Circle Makes A Good Square’ provides detailed drawings, dimensions, instructions, and guidelines for fourteen designs by Samyra Moumouh and Hans Demeulenaere. This allows readers to re-create each design independently. The book is divided into two main sections. The first section features axonometric drawings of each object, and the second section provides an extensive and detailed list of all required components so that each design can be executed with 18 mm panel material.
The authors present the designs as clearly and comprehensibly as possible without fully switching to classical technical drawings. This maintains a certain level of abstraction in the presentations, which may require readers to make interpretative choices when assembling the designs. Additionally, Pierre Martin Vielcazat has visually translated each design. He achieved this by combining all parts of each design into a "totem".

On the occasion of the centenary celebration of the publication of the Surrealist Manifesto, it seems essential that Radicale1924 continues the village's legacy as an artists' village, demonstrating its commitment to encouraging artistic exploration andcollaboration. The 100th anniversary of André Breton’s First Surrealist Manifesto, published in 1924, offers us an exceptional opportunity to revisit surrealism in the light of our times. Collaborating with the avant-garde becomes a way to question cultural history and explore creative methods that combine research and practice to be both disruptive and propositional. Over three years, "Radicale 1924” hosted 35 international artists and writers in residence at Maison Routier, offering a series of public events. This final celebration in Maison Andre Breton is presented as a collection of original works from Radicale1924 in dialogue with previously unseen works and documents from the private and public collections of our artistic advisors. It is a multidisciplinary artistic event that integrates itself into the unique topography of the village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie.

LAND IN / LAND OUT is an upcoming exhibition at the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, seeking to bridge Italian and Belgian cultures through landscape interpretation. Contemporary artists challenge traditional notions of the genre, dissolving visual boundaries between inside and outside, self and other. Using the 16:9 smartphone format, sixteen artists will create intimate works, aiming to reignite the viewer's connection with art and explore the vibrancy of the space between artwork and observer.
Each pair of contemporary artists - selected for formal affinity or research - will be placed in dialogue with one of the works present in the permanent collection of the Uffizi Gallery, creating a kind of diffused path. A new geography, a map within the map inside the museum, dedicated to the visual experience. For the artists involved and the observer, the masterpiece, therefore, becomes a device to activate a reflection on how the landscape could be contemplated in contemporary times. The “portion of earth and sky”, that is defined as landscape, is in constant transformation and so is the individual who, over the centuries, continues to observe it in a process of inevitable osmosis between man and nature.

In the enchanting village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, the dynamic artistic initiative has taken root: Radicale1924. Founded in 2021 by Belgian artist Chantal Yzermans, Radicale1924 pays tribute to the contemporary expansion and reinterpretation of Surrealism.
Saint-Cirq-Lapopie has inspired artists for generations including luminaries such as Henri Martin and Pierre Daura. Notably, Elise and André Breton frequented the village during the late 1940s, hosting artists and friends alike. Radicale1924 perpetuates this legacy of hosting, evoking the past in its contemporary cultivation of artistic exchanges.
Whilst paying homage to the history and medieval village of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie, the annual Parade, The Public Event seeks to rekindle the artistic engagement that once existed. This August, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie will once again transform into a stage as Parade, The Public Event serves as a vibrant testament to the convergence of artistic expression and community. By gathering artists whose works radiate playfulness, sensory exploration, performance and poetry, Radicale1924 aspires to engage with our tumultuous reality.

Over the course of one year, Hans Demeulenaere created a series of different objects and small sculptures in his studio. In this artist book he poses a few pressing questions. What is the status of his work and the space in which it finds itself? And what is the impact on our perception if we remove the objects from its physical surroundings?

W hole
Hans Demeulenaere & Meryem Bayram
2019
limited edition of 5
For years artists Meryem Bayram and Hans Demeulenaere have been working with the posibilities of space. ‘W hole’ is their first collaboration. Starting point was their shared fascination for objects and their relation to their environment. During a six week residency at Frans Masereel Centrum and a two week residency by Bayram at workspacebrussels, the artists collected various objects with holes, ranging from a chair to a piece of jute webbing. With the intention of bringing them together in an artist book, a whole.
Demeulenaere worked with 26 ‘punctured’ objects and their silhouettes. Experiments in the silk screen studio resulted in a play between figuration and abstraction common in his work. Demeulenaere likes to question our perception by isolating objects from their context. So does Bayram, albeit in a different ways. She researches the performative qualities of objects in motion and their relationship to human beings.
An artist book thus becomes the possible point of departure for a performance, an instrument or script that she or other artists can work with.
Originally it was Bayram and Demeulenaere’s intention to make a book together, but they quickly found that to be an uninteresting approach. It felt more natural to work on their own terms and then combine the results. The outcome is a beautiful artist edition in two parts.
