‎**LUXE edition + PHOTO / signed. Een visueel monument, dat op indringende wijze vastlegt hoe Europa omgaat met de dreiging van de klimaatopwarming. Vier jaar lang heeft Carl De Keyzer vier maanden per jaar de kusten van Europa afgereisd, van het hoge noorden tot het zuiden. Hij fotografeerde vervreemdende landschappen, desolate stranden, verlaten hotels, winterse pieren en dramatische wolkenpartijen: prachtige maar onheilspellende beelden met een hoog David Lynchgehalte. Moments before the Flood is bij uitstek een fotografie van het wachten. Carl De Keyzer portretteert de unheimlichkeit van het onbestemde en het onzekere, met een meesterlijk oog voor de schoonheid ervan en met een weergaloos gevoel voor ironie. --- A visual monument that poignantly records how Europe deals with the threat of global warming. For four years, Carl De Keyzer traveled the coasts of Europe for four months a year, from the far north to the south. He photographed alienating landscapes, desolate beaches, deserted hotels, wintry piers and dramatic clouds: beautiful but ominous images with a high David Lynch content. Moments before the Flood is pre-eminently a photography of waiting. Carl De Keyzer portrays the uncannyness of the indefinable and the uncertain, with a masterly eye for its beauty and an unparalleled sense of irony.‎
