Borremans has the advantage of being a respected figurative oil painter who is simultaneously a contemporary artist: he has the entire history of figurative art at his disposal. -- The Brooklyn Rail 'The Acrobat' provides an opportunity -- all too rare on this side of the Atlantic -- to see the genius of Borremans in the flesh...It's painterly magic. A major New York museum retrospective is long overdue. --John Vincler The New York Times Michael Borremans may be the greatest living figurative painter. --John Vincler The New York Times

Author Information

Michael Borremans's innovative approach to painting combines technical mastery with subject matter that defies straightforward interpretation. His charged canvases address universal themes that seem to resonate with a specifically contemporary relevance. The artist was born in 1963 in Geraardsbergen, Belgium and in 1996 he received his M.F.A. from Hogeschool voor Wetenschap en Kunst, Campus St. Lucas, in Ghent. Borremans continues to live and work in Ghent. Katya Tylevich is an arts and fiction writer. She is the author of Gus Van Sant: The Art of Making Movies, Art Oracles, and Success Oracles, as well as many book and monograph contributions, essays, and interviews. She is the coauthor of My Life As a Work of Art. Notable artist collaborations include The Marina Abramovic Method Cards as well as projects with Barry McGee and Todd Hido. She has been a contributing editor and writer for publications such as Elephant, Mark, Frame, Domus, and Pin-Up. With her brother Alexei she cofounded Friend & Colleague, a platform for editions, fiction, and special projects. She is currently writing a book titled Fear Eats the Soup and working on projects with Michaël Borremans as well as Marina Abramovic.
