A Prior #09

In this issue, the work of three artists is presented: Goele De Bruyn (Belgium, 1963), Daan van Golden (The Netherlands, 1936) and Jimmie Durham (USA, 1940), in an attempt to offer some consolation in difficult times. This comfort is contained in the way this issue explores the essence of the art experience and the awareness of how close it is to life itself. In effect the issue discusses the ways in which the three artists incorporate their art into, and in accordance with, their (outlook on) life, or vice versa, the way their practice influences the constitution of their lives’ essence. – See more at: http://aprior.org/issue/art_and_life#sthash.Fuy9uV4P.dpuf
