Labor and Production - 1987/1998

De publicatie Narcisse Tordoir - LABOR AND PRODUCTION - 1987/1998 begeleidt de gelijknamige tentoonstelling in het kunstencentrum VANDENHOVE te Gent van een ruimte selectie van de maquettes van kunstwerken die beeldend kunstenaar Narcisse Tordoir (°Mechelen 1954) in 2019 aan het M HKA te Antwerpen heeft geschonken. De modellen zijn thematisch gegroepeerd in zes secties: Dodendans, Studio, Spiegel, Scherven, Icoon, Veelluik.
Het boek bevat twee essays: In De contouren van een personage peilt Guy Châtel naar het antiautoritaire auteurschap van de kunstenaar. Stefaan Vervoort interpreteert in Gebouwde beelden Tordoirs vroege werk en situeert de maquettes in de hedendaagse artistieke context.
