Summary: | Dirk Braeckman's work brings stillness to today's steady tide of images. Working with analogue photography, he explores the boundaries of his medium and challenges photographic conventions. His chosen subjects are recognizable, yet flirt with representation, abstraction and the reality of what is shown. Dirk Braeckman creates images with a special charge, which withhold as well as divulge information, giving them the power to hold the viewer's gaze.00Exhibition: Belgian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, Italy (13.05-26.11.2017) / Museum Leuven, Belgium (02.02-29.04.2018) / Centre for Fine Arts, Brussels, Belgium (01.02.-29.04.2018).
