A good painting is a miracle. From Giotto to Morris Louis, from Giorgione to Mi Fu, from Chardin to contemporary painters, across all differences, the wonder of the beauty experience remains invariably the same. To penetrate deeper into this, Francis Smets resorts to an intuitive hypothesis: the experience of beauty happens with and through the body. This unusual approach immediately raises new questions: which bodies are involved in this encounter and in what way? Thus begins an exciting journey that penetrates step by step into the body, into the painting and especially into the “between” that connects the two. There an erotic meeting takes place. Painting has always been able to connect body and mind. This quality allows her to pave the way for physical spirituality. That is why it is not so much a project of the past, but above all opens a door to the future. IN DUTCH!
