Bert Danckaert



Bert Danckaert - 'Simple Present' (2006-...)

"The bizarre cityscapes of Bert Danckaert (°1965 Antwerp) deal with the same paradox of abstractive simplicity and a complexity of meaning and metaphor. Danckaerts still lives breathe a superficial flavour, a strangeness that is found in the familiar. Coincidental installations of sidewalks, walls and street furniture refer more to minimalist art than to conventions of street photography. In these absurd scenarios a recognizable, all too banal reality appears stage-set, props and trompe-l’oeil included, while the actors are absent." (txt: Inge Henneman, curator of the Antwerp Photo Museum)
