Title: Pol Bury - Deluding Time
Description: Patrick Derom Gallery 2014, 2014 Paperback, English, 84 pagina's, 250 x 250 mm, fine copy. ¶ Pol Bury introduced the concept of time in sculpture. He was presented as a kinetic artist because his works incorporate movement, but this slow, sometimes barely perceptible movement allowed him to sow doubt in the minds of his viewers. If the spectator is to believe his own eyes, he must stand perfectly still, and attentive to movements that will undermine the superficial appearance of a work at rest. Movement is not the fundamental message of a work that transmits no signs, and makes no grand gestures. The movement gives the sculpture an additional point of interest ? the possibility to be several sculptures in succession, which may only be seen if we are prepared to grant them the time it takes.
