Peter Buggenhout

First monograph on the artist Peter Buggenhout (Gent, Belgium), who exhibited in a wide range of important venues all over the world.
A monumental book of nearly 400 pages. The book was made in close collaboration with the artist, like an extension of the artist's artistic work. Besides the pages devoted to his work, he wishes to pay homage to a certain number of artists, scenario writers, photographers,. - famous or anonymous, whose courses and work influenced him, questioned, even encouraged him in his artistic practice.
The book is thus punctuated by booklets - printed on a green paper clearly in order to create a rupture with the rest of the work - presenting the great influences to which he wanted to refer, booklets which will be intercalated between the reproduction pages of his installations and sculptures.

Il s'agit de la première monographie de l'artiste belge Peter Buggenhout, qui expose aujourd'hui dans les plus grands musées du monde.
Réalisé en étroite collaboration avec lui (il a souhaité concevoir lui-même la maquette de ce monumental ouvrage comme l'extension de son travail artistique) l'ouvrage présente alternativement des pages consacrées à son oeuvre et d'autres au travers desquelles il souhaite rendre hommage à un certain nombre d'hommes - artistes, cinéastes, photographes. - célèbres ou anonymes, dont le parcours et le travail l'ont influencé, questionné, voire encouragé dans sa pratique artistique.
