The work of John Casebere, an American photographer who studied with John Baldessari and obtained his Master of Arts from the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), is marked by a profound interest in architecture. Yet rather than focusing his lens on the actual buildings, he makes scale models of them, which he then photographs.
During the International Biennial of Photography in BOZAR Brussels, Casebere presents an intricate ensemble of domestic interiors and settings in the antechambers of Victor Horta's Centre for Fine Arts. Three rather disconcerting works mark the historical link between the artist, Brussels and Belgium: Screw Device (1991), Cell with Rubble (1996) and Turning Hallway (2003).
