Uno: Kasper De Vos (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9789464363128)

- Kasper De Vos' sculptures and installations, often comically referencing food culture and found objects, evoke a playful and colorful uncanny world

UNO was made in collaboration with PLUS-ONE Gallery on the occasion of Kapser De Vos' exhibition 'Pushing And Pulling The Center To The Mirror' at M HKA's Inbox. Kasper De Vos ( 1988) gained attention with installations and sculptural interventions that referred to consumerism and its associated food culture in a way that was both humorous and sculptural. Often, his sculptures combine found objects or materials with modelled elements. His sculptures and installations seem to stem from a kind of tactile and visual pleasure, a play of formal and substantive associations and a mild form of humour that takes the form of an open, playful, imaginative dance with materials, techniques, things and thoughts. His work evokes stories without being illustrative or pedantic. It is a kind of thinking with shapes, which in turn makes us think and dream. Surprising, inventive, generous, plastic, virtuosic, open and oneiric. In English and French.
