Matt Connors and Lesley Vance in Friends in a Field: Conversations with Raoul De Keyser
17 December 2022—21 May 2023
Group exhibition at Mu.Zee, Oostende, Belgium
Mu.ZEE invited the American guest curators Douglas Fogle and Hanneke Skerath to view the work of the Belgian artist Raoul De Keyser through the lens of a number of historical and contemporary artists from around the world. ‘Friends in a Field: Conversations with Raoul De Keyser’ takes the radical language of the artist of lightness, playfulness and beauty as the starting point for a conversation with a diverse group of artists who share a similar openness in their work in different ways. These connections stem above all from a shared sensitivity and attention to the fragile elusiveness of the world.
The artists in this exhibition are: Richard Aldrich (born 1975), Forrest Bess (1911-1977), Matt Connors (born 1973), René Daniëls (born 1950), Raoul De Keyser (1930-2012), Vincent Fecteau (born 1969), Maysha Mohamedi (born 1980), Rebecca Morris (born 1969), Betty Parsons (1900-1982), Amy Sillman (born 1955), Ricky Swallow (born 1974), Patricia Treib (born 1979), Luc Tuymans (born 1958) and Lesley Vance (born 1977).
