Bendt Eyckermans Belgium, b. 1994

Biography

° Antwerp, BE
Lives and works in Antwerp, Belgium

Graduated in painting from the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp in 2016.

 

The narrative ambiguity of Eyckermans' paintings is contrasted by their quotidian nature and straightforward motifs, mostly depicting everyday scenes from the painter's own life. All of his characters are friends, who he frequently asks to pose in a certain stance, alone or with others.

Eyckermans has exhibited in M HKA Museum of Contemporary Art Antwerp, Art Festival Watou, S.M.A.K. Ghent, MUDEL Deinze and has been collected by M HKA Antwerp and Vlaamse Gemeenschap.

Bendt Eyckermans is represented by Gallery Sofie Van de Velde, Carlos/Ishikawa (London), and Andrew Kreps Gallery (New York).
