Gladstone Gallery is hosting a show “Model Garden” by Kasper Bosmans. The exhibition will be on view till January 21, 2017.In a suite of new paintings and objects, the artist presents a distinct visual language through graphic appropriation and the deployment of historical, political, and artistic signs. Bosmans works as a careful gatherer of material culled from cultural memories (folk art, heraldry, maps, legends, alphabets and symbols) that were once common and close to home in his native Belgium.Formal elements and ideologies intrinsic to the studied phenomena open up a realm of meaning that both surpasses and celebrates their original functions. Every thread of investigation is incorporated into Bosman’s unique visual language and further translated into paintings and sculptural ensembles.The exhibition is on view at 12 Rue du Grand Cerf, Brussels, Belgium 1000.For details, visit: www.gladstonegallery.comClick on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
