    De Gezegende Nederlaag, 1971
    Fred Bervoets
    Painting , 237 x 275 x 5.5 cm
    oil on canvas

    In the exhibition Sanguine/Bloedrood, Bervoets is brought into resonance with the photographic portraiture of Gautherot. By displaying the spaghetti painting from the seventies on a black wall, the use of colour in the teeming forms is emphasised and the work acquires a compelling presence. In the endless entanglement of depth and perspective – reminiscent of psychotic delusions – a busy and especially complex world is evoked. Here, Bervoets shows the aesthetic violence of a machine in the form of a modern pittura metaphysica.
