Though he is known primarily as a painter, Belgian artist Luc Tuymans (b. 1958) continues to produce extraordinary work in the discipline of printmaking. Graphic Works—Kristalnacht to Technicolor brings together an array of Tuymans' printmaking works. The pieces were produced between 1992 and 2013 and range in technique from the color photocopy of Kristalnacht (1992) to the twelve stone color lithograph of Gene (Plant) (2004). The exhibition will also feature examples of Tuymans' experiments in printing on non-traditional surfaces such as Transitions A-B-C-D (2008), which was produced with multi-colored screenprints on PVC plastic.

Luc Tuymans: Graphic Works – Kristalnacht to Technicolor is curated by Feldman Gallery + Project Space Director Mack McFarland and PNCA faculty member Modou Dieng, in direct collaboration with the artist.

About Luc Tuymans
Belgian artist Luc Tuymans is widely credited with having contributed to the revival of painting in the 1990s. His sparsely colored, figurative works speak in a quiet, restrained, and at times unsettling voice, and are typically painted from pre-existing imagery which includes photographs and video stills. His canvases, in turn, become third-degree abstractions from reality and often appear slightly out-of-focus, as if covered by a thin veil or painted from a failing memory. There is almost always a darker undercurrent to what at first appear to be innocuous subjects.

In 2013, a solo presentation of the artist's portraits, Nice. Luc Tuymans, was hosted by The Menil Collection in Houston, Texas. His work was recently the subject of a retrospective co-organized by the Wexner Center for the Arts, Columbus, Ohio, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It traveled from 2010 to 2011 to the Dallas Museum of Art; Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago; and the Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels. Previous major solo exhibitions include those organized by the Moderna Museet Malmö, Sweden in 2009 and Tate Modern, London in 2004. In 2001, the artist represented Belgium at the 49th Venice Biennale. His works are featured in museum collections worldwide, including The Art Institute of Chicago; Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; The Museum of Modern Art, New York; Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York; and Tate Gallery, London. He lives and works in Antwerp.
