Artist Statement:

Yves Beaumont still finds the
‘inspiration’ for his oeuvre
in landscapes. He thoughtfully
explores the relations between
reality and imagination,
between what is represented
and the image that takes form
on the carrier. The
recognisability remains
present to a greater or lesser
degree, but the sketched or
painted image becomes an
autonomical, sensual entity.
The reality of the image
constantly prevails over the
reality of the concept evoked.
Undoubtedly Yves Beaumont is
conscious of the fact that
eventually every
representation falls short
when trying to capture
reality. Perhaps for him, in
the end, representing is but
an alibi for the experience of
happening, of acting, of the
appearance and disappearance
of a possible representation.
It is a permanent traveling
between construction and
deconstruction, painting and
painting over, to the
ambiguous borderland between
the recognisable (meaningful)
and the uncertain
(meaningless). It is as if the
painter reaches for this one,
liminal moment between
significativeness and absence,
between the representation and
that which is not
representable.

Florent Bex, Former-director
of the Museum for Contemporary
Art, Antwerp (Belgium)...
