“This whole world is wild at heart and weird on top” – David Lynch, 1946 - 2025

With profound sadness, we took notice of visionary filmmaker and artist David Lynch’s passing, at the age of 78. In a world marked by its fast-pacedness and ever-changing tides, Lynch stayed radically true to his own personal beliefs and his singular artistic vision. His surrealist pieces of art, well-known films like Mulholland Drive, Blue Velvet, or the beloved television series Twin Peaks, stand out through his distinct way of storytelling and their overall dreamlike qualities. David Lynch was also known for his paintings, musical explorations, as a writer, and for passionately speaking out about the process of creating and the creative mind at large. His deep understanding of the human struggle, explorations of the subconscious and his distinct aesthetic style often guided him in the creation of his iconic works.

Above all, we want to say thank you, David Lynch, for a lifetime devoted towards bestowing us with with a host of haunting, surreal, and dreamlike masterpieces, through which we got intimate glimpses into the vastness of a world lying within this intricate and magical mind, got lost in magical reverie.

As the influence of artists like Pablo Picasso and Francis Picabia continue to meaningfully shape boundaries of contemporary art, the impact of early modernism echoes throughout the group exhibition TO LIVE IS TO FLY, presented at Tim Van Laere Gallery in Antwerp.

The exhibition features works by Armen Eloyan, Adrian Ghenie, Kati Heck, Hans Josephsohn, Friedrich Kunath, Jonathan Meese, Muller Van Severen, Francis Picabia, Pablo Picasso, Tal R, Ben Sledsens, Dennis Tyfus, Jean Tinguely, Inès van den Kieboom, Rinus Van de Velde, and Franz West.

Engaging in a dialogue across time and space, these artists stand united by their ability to challenge artistic conventions. Opposites are harmoniously set against one another: where abstraction meets figuration, the grotesque embraces beauty and humor intertwines with philosophical reflection. The result is a conversation between abstraction, surrealism, figurative art and contemporary practices.
As themes of transcendence, absurdity, existentialism and humor unfold, the exhibition celebrates the complexity of life, expressed through the liberating power of art. TO LIVE IS TO FLY invites us to escape the ordinary; to soar, to dream, to question, and ultimately – to fly.

TO LIVE IS TO FLY can be visited from 30th of January until 5th of April, at Tim Van Leare Gallery, Jos Smolderenstraat 50, 2000 Antwerp.

Prada presents the third instalment of the unique storytelling collaboration with National Geographic Creativeworks.

Highlighting the complexity of the Prada Re-Nylon collection in a series of four documentary films featuring Benedict Cumberbatch and Sadie Sink among others, each film invites onlookers to engage in an immersive experience, taking them behind the scenes, under the surface of the sea, and beyond. While revealing the majesty of this fantastic, complex and deeply fascinating ecosystem, the new episodes also make more tangible the dangers these marine environments face and provide guidance for how we can evolve our approaches to create a positive impact.

Regenerated from plastic waste sourced from the ocean and landfills, Prada Re-Nylon stands as a testament to the Group’s commitment to creating products without employing new resources. Since 2019 Prada Group has conducted the SEA BEYOND educational program in partnership with the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of UNESCO, based on a deep belief in the connection of fashion to culture and society, with the aim to raise awareness about ocean preservation.

1% of earnings from the Prada Re-Nylon for SEA BEYOND collection benefit SEA BEYOND, with the goal to inspire new generations; spread awareness and promote ocean literacy, to ultimately understand the importance of ocean preservation and champion change.

“For example, while writing this album it took me two and a half years, I didn’t listen to any new music at all. I didn’t listen to the Top 40 charts, I didn’t check new artists, I was just in my bubble, where me and my team were listening to music that we loved back in the day. We could find new music – some underground s**t or some song that was not the number-one song in the world. That is what inspired me to not be surrounded by what happens today and to just be in my bubble, wanting to tell a story without being influenced by the stuff that happens today. I want to be in my own bubble and to bring people into my world.”

“In acting, we tend to think we need to create movement to be interesting, and we can bounce around a bit too much or use our hands a bit too much. Sometimes we think we have to do this stuff to be interesting, and a lot of that is pathological insecurity coming up. The most interesting actors to watch are the ones who are so confident in what they’re doing that they can just be completely still, deliver what they’ve got to deliver, and make the audience go: “Wow!”

“Nature is many things, but I just feel like it is
the easiest way to connect with a sort of order or
perhaps chaos that we are part of. Nature is the
most tangible way, the most direct way to see what
is beyond all things – to see the rise and fall of all
things. To see the cycle where you must rise, then
fall, and then be born again. It’s so tangible that it
reminds you what drives everything, what’s behind
everything, even if you can’t quite articulate it.”

“I very much enjoy giving myself to someone else’s vision and trying to embody it. I always feel like that this is the most productive way to see clearly, in a way that doesn’t just serve your own intentions, your fixed desires. It’s really more about disappearing and reordering your thoughts into someone else’s idea. That’s when you can take on things that are beyond your experience.”

“You are not bound to your experience, you can imagine things beyond it. And that is why, sometimes, when you play a role or try to inhabit a character that is extremely far from yourself, it can be so interesting, because it destroys, or erases, or challenges the sense of who you are.”

“Ten years ago, we didn’t know as much as we do now. The world is changing with fast fashion, with land piles all over the worlds, from the Atacama Desert to other places in South America, and I think luxury’s in a place where it doesn’t have to be as it once was. I think when you understand who your target audience is and where they sit in the world, as well as the economic system of the world, then you will understand what product you have to make, or product you feel that needs to be made. That’s where my mindset is with things, you know, l is this an addition that will help the world to create better, more meaningful products? Or is this something that will be forgotten about?”

“I think I would describe myself as a chameleon, it’s about survival, creative survival. It really depends on where I am in my life, and also where I’ve been in my life. I think I usually go to where my electrical output is, really responding the most, or biggest light is coming from at that moment, because I’ll bend from music to film to modelling, to acting to photography in different segments of my life, at different times of the day.”

Last week Art Basel returned to Miami Beach in full force, for its first edition under Director Bridget Finn.

Under Finn’s leadership, the refreshed artistic program welcomed 34 new galleries – its largest cohort of new exhibitors in over a decade – as well as new collaborators, exhibition concepts and exciting proposals.

“Across the board, galleries presented truly ambitious, rare and in some cases career- and canon-defining proposals” Bridget Finn reported. These proposals found homes in prestigious collections and ignited significant future conversations for the art world.

The fair brought together 286 galleries from 38 countries and territories and attracted an overall attendance of more than 75.000 throughout its VIP and public days, from across the Americas, Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Africa – once again, solidifying its position as the leading art fair in the Americas. Among the attendees of the 2024 edition were representatives of more than 230 museums and foundations from all across the globe. Exhibitors reported robust demand and sale, with work by some of the world’s leading contemporary artists, 20th-century masters and emerging voices placed in prestigious public, as well as private collections. Further, Art Basel’s renowned talks program Conversations saw its highest average attendance in Miami Beach to date.

Next year, the 2025 edition of the show will take place from 5th to 7th December.

Michaël Borremans – A Confrontation at the Zoo
Exhibition at Museum Voorlinden until 23rd March 2025

The works of Michaël Borremans stand as a threat to the expectations of a perfect setting, just as bad news landing at a formal dinner. The artist’s solo exhibition A Confrontation at the Zoo at museum Voorlinden offers onlookers an experience of Borremans’ hand-selected paintings from the last 20 years.

Michaël Borremans is an artist renowned for his mastering of centuries-old technical-skill. Nonetheless, his works speak their own contemporary language.

A trademark of his work is his impassive and relentless affinity for the absurd and theatrical, with his objects characteristically appearing in homemade costumes. The dark (and darkly funny) mess of human experience and possibility is a reoccurring subject in his work.

The selection featured in A Confrontation at the Zoo emphasizes the intuitive and most poetic relationship between his works of art, bringing together nearly fifty paintings on canvas of Borremans’.
