| book description |

ECHTZEIT is made in collaboration with Dirk Braeckman (BE, Â°1958) and FOMU Antwerp in line with his impacting solo show with the Collections department of the photo museum. Echtzeit offers a unique glimpse into Dirk Braeckman's most recent photographs, accompanied with the museum's collection and texts written by ClÃ©ment ChÃ©roux, director of the Foundation Henri Cartier-Bresson and Tamara Berghmans, curator of the exhibition. Braeckman has chosen from the FOMU collection functional photographs, made without artistic ambition. He recognised certain qualities and commonalities with his own work in these atypical images. Re-photography and experimentation have always formed part of Braeckmanâ€™s artistic practice, though the trajectory to the final image is always different. For the FOMU exhibition, he worked for the first time with an existing collection of photos. Braeckman took photos of the chosen images and printed them. He then over-painted, smeared or cut holes in the prints. He photographed the results and processed them further in his analogue and digital darkroom. The original meaning of the photographs has been altered through the removal of context, the change in format and the addition of titles. A functional document is transformed into a piece of art, a timeless visual poem that raises more questions than it answers. â€˜Echtzeitâ€™Â refers to Braeckmanâ€™s bridging of the past and present. Text in English, French and Dutch.
