Sat 08.11.25

Lecture

Bart Schoofs(BE), Charlotte Peys(BE), Ben Gijsemans(BE)

The Grafixx Book Club is not a traditional book club, but rather a meeting with creators. Ben Gijsemans, Charlotte Peys, and Bart Schoofs join us and, together with the audience, leaf through their most cherished sources of inspiration, talk about how their own work comes about, and delve into publications they discovered through Grafixx.

GRAFIXX HOUSE CALL #15

Isabelle Vandenabeele(BE)

Well-known in Belgium for her expressive illustrations that tackle complex subjects, Isabelle Vandenabeele is both an expert printmaker and a compelling storyteller. Through the use of contrasting colours and bold shapes, she creates meticulously crafted, rhythmic compositions, while capturing an essence that preserves a deep emotional sensibility in her work.

GRAFIXX EXT.: Off the Wall @ Bureau Bouwtechniek

Fri 29.11.24 — Sun 01.11.26

Mural

Arthur Devisscher(BE)

Every two years, Bureau Bouwtechniek invites a new artist to create a wall painting at their headquarters located in the Nieuw Zuid neighbourhood of Antwerp. Grafixx selected Arthur Devisscher, whose detailed and colourful sequential works unfold in stories that pay tribute to nature and the animal kingdom.

Charbonner

Sarah Cheveau(BE)

Charbonner means hard labour, digging together into the earth, but it also means darkening, covering up with charcoal. In this publication, Sarah Cheveau explores the many shades of black, layering them on top of each other. Her drawings show the depth of night, and by manifesting the darkness they also reveal the light of life.

Personal Reality Show

Atsuko Ishii(JP)

Since 1995, Atsuko Ishii has been engraving numerous figures into copper plates, which she then lovingly prints in various colours on her Parisian etching press in both small and large formats. Using different motifs — ranging from couples in love to children at play — these are compiled into her first monograph, whose unique universe captivates from the very first page.
