About

Philippe Vandenberg was a Belgian artist living and working at Brussels and represented by Hauser And Wirth.

Philippe Vandenberg dreamed to become a writer and started studying literature before attending the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent. Inspired by the colorful and characterful works of the artists Jerome Bosch and James Ensor, he became interested in Jackson Pollock, the New York Scene and the German New Fauves. This enraged and engaged man, enraged by violence and inequality, engaged in his role as courier and witness, has gained international recognition in recent years, with exhibitions in Paris, London, Brussels, Hamburg, Seoul and New York. Philippe Vandenberg felt close to those who wanted to shake up consciences such as Berlinde De Bruyckere and Thierry De Cordier. In Belgium, it took almost fifteen years for his works, poetic and politic, to be appreciated.

The Kill Them All Series
1974 - 1988

Kill Them All is the emblematic series by Philippe Vandenberg. He began what would be his last drawings when he moved from Ghent to Brussels, in Molenbeek. Between wealth and poverty, affluent and working districts, moderate and radical islam, this sensitive man draws with rage, on the floor, a humanity in decline. An impressive and intense production, poetic and politic, that goes beyond the boundaries of his neighborhood. He put down in words, his reflections on the world, haunted by loneliness, loss, brutality, violence, torture and depression. He created almost compulsively, drawing inspiration from universal as well as banal things, and also from hi
s childhood. Raised by an authoritarian father, a dog trainer, whom he helped to cull the weakest animals, he often drew under the table to externalize his emotions, frustrations and suffering. He often wrote in front of the television, also drawing inspiration from the news. Any medium and media could be used, because the most important thing is the message, and none of his messages are innocent.
