Art : Concept is pleased to welcome Michel François to the gallery’s roster of artists.
Born in Sint-Truiden (Belgium) in 1956, Michel François lives and works in Brussels. Since the 1980s, he has developed a body of work in which sculpture serves as a structuring practice, inspiring photography, video, art installations, performance, curatorial projects, and, more recently, painting. This freedom in the choice of medium is matched by a rigorous reflection on space, matter, volume, and the conditions under which forms appear and disappear.
