Om rockåren och brännsåren. En ung mans originella men generationsspecifika mognadsprocess – från barnets naiva leende via den trasiga punken, ut på omvälvande resor ... ... till kalla krigets origo, New Yorks novembertunga regnglitter och kärlekstörstiga Sinatra-barer. Med musiken och humanismen som ledstjärna – på kamikazekurs mot Killinggängets mediekåta narcissism. Kollaps, konflikt i kropp och tanke. Glädje, hopp ...… och visdom i sikte. Ur förordet av Håkan Lahger: "Så det är en minst sagt fascinerande inblick i en helt sluten värld som boken ger oss. I filmen om Imperiet, Ett hjärta är alltid rött, får vi glimtar av denna tillvaro men här får vi The Full Monty."Detta är del 1 – Rockåren. Del 2 – Brännsåren kommer under 2025Omslagsfoton: Framsida: Hatte Stiwenius / Hatte Stiwenius Collection Baksida: Lars Torndahl

Fred Bervoets (b. 1942) is a legend in the Belgian art world and revered by the younger generation of artists. For years he has made both expansive, teeming artworks and extremely traditional prints, the latter of which has seen him develop his own unique technique. Although his spontaneous and gestural style seems to accord with Expressionism, Fauvism or Cobra art, Bervoets is above all an idiosyncratic artist who uncompromisingly treads his own path and gives free reign to his imagination. A simple anecdote from a friend in a café might provide the catalyst for a work in which the story assumes new proportions and adopts its own twists. His personal life also engenders self-portraits or other types of artworks, all crowned with an essential degree of self-mockery and irony. Bervoets allows everyday events to expand into miniature universes governed by their own rules and laws. The horror vacui of his large paintings conceals countless details, all of which contribute to the narrative. Bervoets' works might seem playful but they are tinged with melancholy. His caricatural figures are compelled to stand their ground in a denuded world. They achieve this by completely surrendering, with the necessary humour, to the inevitability of life. In recent years, Bervoets has increasingly presented himself as a peintre-graveur. This means he does not use the etching technique as a method of reproduction but as a means of expression. Each and every one of his chaotic and colourful works testifies to his pictorial passions, consummate skill and unbridled energy. This book presents the evocative work produced by Fred Bervoets between 2015 and 2019, including his most recent Night Drawings series, the masterful embodiment of the nocturnal reveries and memories that persistently haunt his mind.
