Michaël Borremans’ “A Confrontation at the Zoo” at Voorlinden Museum in Wassenaar Netherlands, opens until 23rd March 2025
The exhibition showcases Borremans’ mastery of oil painting, highlighting the dynamic interplay of meticulous technique and profound conceptuality. Featuring works from the past two decades, it demonstrates his talent for blending classical artistic methods with modern, disquieting themes. Borremans’ understated emotional expression and surreal theatricality foster a tension that hovers between the humorous and the unsettling. The show explores the organic relationships between the pieces, presenting them as part of an ongoing visual conversation. With refined craftsmanship and layered ambiguity, Borremans’ art delves into all the facets of life, good and bad.
