    Hardcover, 128 pag. NL / ENG. edition, 275 x 265 x 18 mm, NIEUW / NEW, illustr. in kleur / color. ISBN 9789461618849. Patrick Vertenten (1964, Sint-Gillis-Waas) is een kunstenaar die schildert vanuit het hart. Dankzij diffuus licht en subtiele penseelstreken - vergelijkbaar met de ondiepe focus in cinematografie - baadt het oeuvre van de Belgische kunstenaar in nostalgie en melancholie. Ge nspireerd door film, literatuur, po zie, en muziek, recupereert Vertenten bestaand beeldmateriaal uit verschillende bronnen, dat hij transformeert in een volledige nieuwe karakterstudie van het leven en de mensheid: eenzaamheid, zwakte, intimiteit, verlangen en sehnsucht. De toeschouwer, geraakt door de schoonheid van het schilderij, wordt uitgenodigd om het beeld te verkennen in de nieuwe context. De zware, donkere tonen in het beeld stemmen overeen met het gewicht van het leven. Ze leven op en flikkeren in het contrast met de schilderkunstige hoogtepunten die functioneren als symbolische lichtpunten.//////////////////////Patrick Vertenten (1964, Sint-Gillis-Waas) is an artist who paints from the heart. Thanks to diffuse light and subtle brushstrokes - comparable to the shallow focus in cinematography - the Belgian artist's oeuvre is bathed in nostalgia and melancholy. Inspired by film, literature, poetry, and music, Vertenten recovers existing images from various sources, which he transforms into a completely new character study of life and humanity: loneliness, weakness, intimacy, desire and security. The viewer, touched by the beauty of the painting, is invited to explore the image in its new context. The heavy, dark tones in the image correspond to the weight of life. They come alive and flicker in contrast to the painterly highlights that function as symbolic points of light. 970 g.
