Littlepetshop Zellers

, after our trip to Antwerp.

This time, we walk in darkest alleys, a perfect geometry of streets that feel the pain, which repress the pungent smell that takes you to the heart but, this time, do not inspire disgust, but a shiver of malice. alleys more Ann D 'in the end.

But Ann D 'is mainly a traveling, a good approach to it, we can trace a few dates.

1978-1981, training at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp.

1982, wins the Golden Duckling, rewarding the most promising young artists of the year. A glowing foreword to the future icon.

first collection in 1987, success, and first show in Paris in 1992. His work is received with great interest.

1992, a pivotal year. Early White Shirt (for Mallarmé) " in collaboration with Rodney Graham. Followed by "Stars do not stand still in the sky" Tribute to Mallarme . For me, his work at the symbolic most important (if only for the love poetry of Mallarme ...). Based on the prose poem "The Demon of Analogy" is a whole new approach they wish to describe the disorder what Mallarmé. Everything depends on the accuracy of detail, looking for poetry by the tissue, a certain communion nostalgic with matter. 21 shirts were produced, numbered and signed by the name of Mallarmé's poem.

The Demon of Analogy.

I made steps in the street and recognized the sound void of the taut string musical instrument was forgotten and the glorious remembrance certainly came to visit her wing or a palm and finger on the artifice of mystery, I smile and greeting implored different intellectual speculation. The sentence came, virtual, generated from a fall earlier pen or twig, from now through the voice heard, until at last it revolved only living personality. I was going to (do more than simply my perception) the reading at the end of verse, and once as a test, adapting it to my talk, and soon the silence after pronouncing a "Penultimate" in which the thought painful pleasure "The Penultimate" then the string of the instrument, so tense in oblivion on the draw, probably broke and I added by way of prayer: "Is dead. "I never ceased to attempt a return to thoughts of choice, claiming to calm me down, that certainly is the penultimate word in the lexicon which means the penultimate syllable of the words, and his appearance, remains poorly abjured a labor of language by which daily sobs interrupted my noble poetic faculty the same tone and air of falsehood hastily assumed by the easy assertion were a cause of torment. Harassed, I resolved let the sad nature of words themselves wandering on my mouth, and went muttering intonation capable of condolence: "The Penultimate died, is dead, really dead, the desperate Penultimate", thinking thereby satisfy the concern, not without secretly hoping to bury in the amplification of the chant when, horror! - A magic easily deductible and nervous - I felt that I had my hand reflected by a shop window there making the gesture of a caress that descends on something, the voice (the first, which was undoubtedly the sole).
