this beautiful publication shows Tuymans' series - Mwana Kitoko / Beautiful White Man. Tuymans refers to thorny (political) questions, but the attractiveness of the painting partly obscures the underlying issue. Precisely these contradictions, this 'confounding', is one of the strongest points of his work.
