Installation view.
ANTWERP
.-Tim Van Laere Gallery is presenting its first solo exhibition of Marcel Dzama entitled The Moon is Following Me. Including drawings, sculptures, dioramas and a film, this exhibition marks the artists first solo presentation in Belgium.
Marcel Dzama (°1974 Winnipeg, Canada. Lives and works in New York) has developed an immediately recognisable visual language that investigates human action and motivation, as well as the blurred relationship between the real and the subconscious. Drawing equally from folk vernacular as from art-historical and contemporary influences, Dzamas work visualises a universe of childhood fantasies and otherworldly fairy tales. Dzama s image repertoire includes a wide range of art-historical quotations. One can recognize ballet costumes by Oskar Schlemmer or Francis Picabia, for example, and direct references to Francisco de Goya, Marcel Duchamp
