JAN DE COCK Via dell’Abbondanza 2010
“his reflection is developed from the classic canon of Roman architecture: the gallery is being transformed into an archaeological site. Upon entering we find ourselves projected into a modern re-visitation of the Via dell’Abbondanza of the ancient city of Pompeii: a landscape of sculptures takes control of the space in joyous way through rhythms of columns, fountains, temples and timpani. These canons are re-interpreted by the artist by means of his modular forms.”
