Luc Tuymans the Worshipper Print, 2004
About the Item
The Worshipper, 2004 by Luc Tuymans is a large format silkscreen limited print edition of 100. Each is signed and numbered by Luc Tuymans and comes with a special edition monograph of Luc Tuymans, both presented in a beautiful and unique case.
Belgian artists Luc Tuymans (b. 1958) is considered one of the most significant and influential contemporary painters working today. His work fuses the traditions of Old Master Flemish and Spanish still-life genres painting with a late-twentieth-century sensibility.
Celebrated as one of the world's most gifted visionary painters, Tuymans has been creating iconic works of art for nearly three decades. For The Worshipper he collaborated with a master printer in Antwerp to create a screen-print based on his 2004 painting of the same name, the source of which was a photograph Tuymans took in the Musée International du Carnaval et du Masque in the Belgian town of Binche. 'I was mostly using Polariods, which attenuate the colours, making things unclear and imprecise. Polaroids don't provide the same accuracy as digital or film photography, and they present more inconsistencies. I like to work with materials that are inconsistent because they leave more room for interpretation.'
As in much of Tuymans' best work, the bearded figure in occupies an enigmatic role, in this case a cleric of indeterminate faith engaged in an ambiguous ceremony. Amplifying this sense of mystery is Tuymans' unmistakable palette, with its modulated greens and yellows. The effect is a timelessness that transcends both subject and form. As Ulrich Loock writes in the accompanying volume, Tuymans 'appears to be seeking an escape from the compulsory discourse of modernism, as if the works have their place somewhere else entirely.' This place, so hauntingly evoked in The Worshipper, is Tuymans' great artistic discovery.

"I shot the video in 2000, in my home in SoHo. I knew prior to shooting what I wanted to do and I envisioned the piece exactly as it turned out. First, I experimented with a metal cookie tin placed on a hot stove. It didn't work because the ice cube melted too quickly. I tried a hairdryer but as the cube melted, the hair-blower blew the remaining cube away. Thus, I let the cube melt on it's own accord in real time. It took about three hours to fully dissolve into a puddle of water. I used a glass plate on Glassene paper: all that transparency made the black lines of the plate look line a charcoal line drawing. The title is important because it precisely explains the work: The Long Dissolve is exactly of an ice cube dissolving." —Burt Barr
Claiming that "black and white are the only two colors I'll ever need," Burt Barr is a believer in the single take and the static shot. Meant to be projected directly onto a wall and looped for continual viewing, his films equate more to hanging drawings or black and white photographs than they are moving pictures...
