Jan De Vliegher 2004-2009

Willy Van den Bussche

The works of Jan De Vliegher (°Bruges 1964) are of a realistic nature and are situated in the figurative field.
De Vliegher attaches no importance to the narrative or anecdotic aspect but is constantly searching for universal situations. Ordinary objects and events from his own environment are captured on film, compositionally reorganised and transformed into a painted image. The surprisingly strong colour effect gives each work a special visual attractiveness.
