The artist has looked at different aspects of Craeybeckx\u0026rsquo;s vision, and especially to where form and ideology collide. He produced several clay and concrete models that are shown on a special display unit; something between a table and a dysfunctional tilted stage. The elements on display are replica\u0026rsquo;s from fragments of objects found in the city that are connected to the legacy of Craeybeckx. Waterdrops that are slowly dripping from the ceiling onto the objects causes their painted colour to run down the unit and change its appearance during the course of the exhibition, reflecting natural changes and convergences that happen beyond planning.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp\u003eDe op onderzoek gebaseerde praktijk van Paul Hendrikse beschouwt miskende figuren uit de kunst, literatuur en politiek die op verschillende wijzen belangrijke of dubbelzinnige bijdragen tot de samenleving hebben geleverd.

De kunstenaar onderzocht verschillende aspecten van Craeybeckx\u0026#39; visie, met name vooral daar waar vorm en ideologie samenkomen. Hij cre\u0026euml;erde verschillende modellen in klei en beton die op een speciale presentatie-eenheid worden getoond; iets dat het midden houdt tussen een tafel en een disfunctioneel gekanteld podium.
