Description

Marianne Van Vyve (1943-1991) was a Belgian painter who lived and worked in her hometown of Antwerp. Never affiliated to any particular group, she mainly followed her own artistic inclination, often against the prevailing trends of the time. She chronicled her emotional landscape through her art, in the quiet of her successive studios. This book explores her intriguing work, examining the influence of her academic training on her formative years and outlining her evolution as a painter. It also reappraises Marianne Van Vyve as a female artist in the wider art historical context, and highlights the quiet radicalism of her later work, with roots in traditional Native American medicine teachings.

Marianne Van Vyve (1943-1991) était une peintre belge qui vivait et travaillait dans sa ville natale d'Anvers. N'ayant jamais appartenu à un groupe particulier, elle a principalement suivi sa propre inclination artistique, souvent à contre-courant des tendances dominantes de l'époque. Elle a relaté son paysage émotionnel à travers son art, dans le calme de ses ateliers successifs. Ce livre explore son œuvre fascinante, examine l'influence de sa formation universitaire sur ses années de formation et décrit son évolution en tant que peintre. Il réévalue également Marianne Van Vyve en tant qu'artiste féminine dans le contexte plus large de l'histoire de l'art et met en évidence le radicalisme discret de son travail ultérieur, qui puise ses racines dans les enseignements traditionnels de la médecine amérindienne.

Marianne Van Vyve (1943-1991) was een Belgische schilderes die woonde en werkte in haar geboortestad Antwerpen. Ze was nooit gelieerd aan een bepaalde groep, maar volgde voornamelijk haar eigen artistieke neiging, vaak tegen de heersende trends van die tijd in. Ze legde haar emotionele landschap vast via haar kunst, in de stilte van haar opeenvolgende studio's. Dit boek onderzoekt haar intrigerende werk, onderzoekt de invloed van haar academische opleiding op haar vormende jaren en schetst haar evolutie als schilderes. Het herwaardeert ook Marianne Van Vyve als vrouwelijke kunstenaar in de bredere kunsthistorische context en benadrukt het stille radicalisme van haar latere werk, met wortels in traditionele Indiaanse geneeskunde.
