Expo: Tilburg: 22/01/2005 - 29/05/2005, Paris :23.06.2005 - 09.10.2005 Vanaf het begin van de jaren negentig werkt Berlinde De Bruyckere met dekens als materiaal voor haar beelden en installaties. Wollen dekens die bedekken en beschermen. Maar voor De Bruyckere symboliseren ze niet alleen warmte en beschutting, maar ook kwetsbaarheid en angst. Angst die mensen onder de dekens doet wegkruipen en kwetsbaarheid in situaties van kou, ziekte, rampen en oorlog. Het zijn de beelden die de media ons dagelijks voorschotelen

Expo: Tilburg: 22/01/2005 - 29/05/2005, Paris :23.06.2005 - 09.10.2005 Since the early nineties, Berlinde De Bruyckere has been working with blankets-woolen blankets that cover and protect-as the material for her sculptures and installations. For De Bruyckere they symbolize not only warmth and shelter, but also vulnerability and fear. Fear that makes people crawl under blankets and vulnerability in situations related to cold, illness, disaster and war. They are the images-from Somalia, Ruanda or Kosovo-which the media show us every day: images from hotbeds of violence which cause the population to flee, to hide or to shiver from cold. Victims are wrapped in blankets. The suffering is covered. In De Bruyckere's studio, such newspaper photographs are present as quiet moments among the day-to-day memoranda. They are often images in which sadness and beauty seem to compete for attention
