Description: Serendipity. A concept that is perfectly applicable to the work of the Belgian painter Marcase. For the past forty years he has been 'discovering what he wasn't looking for' - and his audience with him - on canvases that transcend simplicity. The typical 'Marcase line' gives rise to an unimagined world. This book provides a beautiful survey of Marcase's oeuvre, with the focus upon his most recent paintings. Professor Willem Elias, who has followed the artist's career from the very beginning, provides an illuminating essay.
Notes: Catalog of an exhibition held at Zebrastraat, Ghent, September 3-25, 2016.
