„Exhibition Walter Leblanc – Keisuke Matsuura : Resonance“

A dialogue between Belgian artist Walter Leblanc and Japanese artist
Keisuke Matsuura

18.09.2020 – 27.05.2021

Walter Leblanc Foundation – Brussels, Belgium

For this very first in-house curatorial project Japanese artist Keisuke Matsuura (°1970, Kyoto) was given carte blanche to imagine a conversation between his own works and works by Leblanc selected from the Foundation’s collection on the theme of natural energy fields. An immersive installation has been created to mark the occasion and can be experienced in the Foundation’s garden.

Keisuke Matsuura (Kyoto 1970) studied at Tama Art University in Tokyo and then studied with Christian Megert and Daniel Buren at the Düsseldorf Academy. During a trip to Europe, he discovered the artists of the ZERO movement whose spirit would mark him and influence his future research. Inspired also by Walter Leblanc, his work lends itself particularly to this dialogue between two generations.

Walter Leblanc (1932 – 1986) is an important Belgian figure of European post-war art. Over the years, he has built an extremely coherent oeuvre staging light without artifice or any disrupting elements. Within the international, neo- avant-garde network of the Nouvelle Tendance, ZERO, op art, kinetic art, concrete art and (neo)constructivism, Leblanc gained both national and international recognition.
