Peter Downsbrough - From/To: Postcards - S.M.A.K & MAC's 2016
Since the 1960s, Downsbrough has been working on a varied oeuvre that embraces photography, sculpture, installations, artist books and postcards. His work is linked to Minimal Art and Conceptual Art by its innovative approach to space and language.
This book inventorises about 400 postcards that the artist has modified since the 1980s, some of which he sent to friends, fellow artists and curators.
On the occasion of the publication of this book, an exhibition took place both in S.M.A.K., Ghent, and in MAC's, Grand-Hornu, including original unsent postcards and works conceived by the artist specifically for each space.
