Press Release

Galerie Greta Meert is pleased to present Pieter Vermeersch’s fourth solo exhibition, titled Double Trouble. The artist presents a series of recent works on marble in which he reexamines his familiar gradations. What unfolds on these surfaces is not a demonstration of technique, but an exploration of what painting can be when it withdraws from the rhetoric of the image and connects with a surface that is itself already an image.

About the Artist

Originating from photographic sources, Pieter Vermeersch’s work deploys painting as an instrument to create images that perpetually oscillate between abstraction and representation. In scanning the extremities of the medium and its relationship to architecture he looks for the degree zero of an image. His preoccupation where time, space and matter constutue the three main elements.
