    NLENFR

    During the cultural city festival Antwerp Baroque 2018. Rubens Inspires, the M HKA, the Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp, juxtaposes the spirit of the baroque masters with the vision of contemporary top artists. With the exhibition Sanguine/Bloedrood (Blood Red), curator Luc Tuymans aims to overwhelm the visitor by placing key works from the baroque of, among others, Francisco de Zurbarán and Caravaggio, in dialogue with works by classical contemporary masters, such as On Kawara and Edward Kienholz, as well as new works by contemporary stars such as Zhang Enli, Takashi Murakami, Michaël Borremans, Sigmar Polke and Tobias Rheberger.

    Piotr Tolmachov (b. 1974) originates from Belarus but has resided in Antwerp for years, where among other things he creates a dimension for theatre and film productions that can best be described as 'sound choreographies'. He explores the sound spectrum by applying different processes and concepts – fragmentation, repetition, editing – to sound. Striking is his algorithmic and kinetic approach to creating hypnotic sound structures that fill the space. The montage of endlessly repeating sound lines is punctuated by interferences.
