Gijs Van Vaerenbergh presents Escher – Other World, a double exhibition in Kunstmuseum Den Haag. With a new series of artworks and installations, Gijs Van Vaerenbergh enters into dialogue with the renowned oeuvre of M.C. Escher.
Escher’s work, like that of Gijs Van Vaerenbergh, explores the boundaries of space, landscape, perspective and illusion. While Escher explored on paper, Gijs Van Vaerenbergh does so in spatial installations. For this exhibition, space-filling interventions evoke a contemporary view of Escher’s work. They feature sculptural associations that explore the notions of light and heavy, temporary and eternal, (impossible) architecture and infinity, and other shared themes and fascinations.
