Description: Antwerpen -, Dereede, 2021 softcover, 210 pages, illustrations en noir et blanc et en couleurs. 21x15cm. Text NL/ENG/FR. ¶ Léon SPILLIAERT The Pictures Origin In Dialogue with Drawings and Prints The exhibition Léon Spilliaert The Pictures Origin shows how the creative process of sketching and drawing plays a supportive role in the creation of original prints and engravings in Spilliaerts oeuvre. As a young draughtsman Spilliaert contemplated emotions such as love and death, loneliness, desire and shame, and he cast an inspired glance at relationships between men and women and between individuals. In addition, with small nuanced self-portraits in pencil and ink, like so many snapshots, he also illustrated the evolution of his own image. These critical, instantaneous and mostly very spontaneous impressions subtly represent the deeply intimate analysis of his inner, tormented soul. For the first time, exceptional works from private collections are brought together here, which for many will mean a rediscovery of the artists work.
