Description: Since the late 1990s, Belgium artist Wim Catrysse creates video installations in which he explores self-made architectural structures and extreme topographical features. His artistic method combines intuition with technical reasoning, leading to complex cinematographic image constructions. The publication describes 14 of his works in detail, providing us insights into Catrysse's creative progress, working sites and references. With texts by Wim Catrysse, Wouter Davidts, Anselm Franke, Ulrike Lindmayr, Anne Pontégnie, Dieter Roelstraete, Jon Thompson.
Notes: Published on the occasion of the exhibition held January 2014 in CC Mechelen and De Garage, a co-production of Contour (Mechelen).
