ANTWERP, BELGIUM.- Galerie Van der Mieden presents Christian Noirfalise, on view March 16 - April 14, 2007. Still life, landscape, portrait. All classical themes in art history, but also still important for today's artists. Instead of paint, Christian Noirfalise uses his camera. He combines these three themes with his own images. One work sometimes contains over three hundred images from his personal archive. It is important for him that the images used come from his own archive or from the person that he portrays. This to guarantee that there's a story behind every detail that is part of the big picture. By bringing all the elements together, Christian turns it into a narrative picture and suggests in a very philosophical and poetic way something what he tries to show in detail: an interpretation and at the same time an evolution in landscape and portrait art.
