Scope and Contents
The original ink drawing is present on page 13. Internet: "Marker or pen in hand, Benoit Plateus captures the small events of his everyday life or sudden ideas which could become works. Benoit Plateus (born in 1972, Chenee, lives and works in Brussels), winner of the "Young Belgian Painting' in 2003, is one of the most important Belgian artists of his generation. His work doesn't neglect any medium -- photography, video, drawing or sculpture -- in order to search for ambiguities in the most mundane field of visibility. Restless observer, precise, discrete and malicious, Benoit Plateus introduces a distance between objects and their perception in order to shift them to the other side, in a space with variable dimensions and multiple interpretations." -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
