°1971 in Deurne, Belgium.
Sergio De Beukelaer creates paintings that move between image and object, between precision and playful irony. His iconic fat canvasses literally set painting in motion: color becomes space, the canvas gains body.
In - setting… we present works in which clarity, balance, and intensity converge. Each painting stands as an autonomous object and at the same time forms part of a larger whole, exact in form, pure in color, yet infused with a lightness that continues to resonate.
De Beukelaer’s work carries the spirit of Modernism and Pop Art without quoting it. He distills painting to its essence: concentrated, tangible, and full of rhythm.
- setting… is not a retrospective but a state of being, a choreography of color and space.
