Husk Gallery presents 'Territories', a group show in its gallery space featuring selected work by four contemporary Belgian painters: George De Decker, Dirk Eelen, Diego Herman and Nathalie Pirotte. The title of the expo has a double meaning: on the one hand, 'Territories' refers to the literal or figurative representation of a demarcated area over which humans as a species and as individuals desire power and control; on the other hand, it refers to the own artistic territory that artists create in the privacy of their studios. This exhibition brings together four 'pur sang' painters for whom the canvas constantly implies a new (partial) territory, and the material boundaries of the canvas each time delineate the painterly playground. The analysis of the material paint skin of each canvas and the depiction of specific recurrent themes related to the concept of territory in their oeuvre lead us to their highly personal idiom, the territory of their own artistic identity. Each artist's specific visual language offers a unique window on reality through the medium of painting.
