Adriaen Brouwer anno 2018 Guillaume Bijl December 1, 2018The Tour of Flanders Centre asked visual artist Guillaume Bijl to create a work linking Adriaen Brouwer to the “Tour of Flanders”. Guillaume Bijl decided to shoot a film that is part of an art installation exhibited at the Centrum Ronde van Vlaanderen during the Adriaen Brouwer events in Oudenaarde. Eight amateur cycle racers meet at a location near the Oude Kwaremont in the municipality of Kluisbergen. They then start to climb the mountain. They end up in a local pub, where they get well and truly bladdered. We become the viewers of a contemporary Adriaen Brouwer scene. The roles of the amateur cyclists are played by visual artists and by one famous cycling champion.
C A S S T L will also screen the making-ofs of Bidet Museum (2002), Supermarket (2002-2003), James Ensor in Oostende (2000), De Feestelijke Herdenking van het Graafschap Watou (2002) and of Adriaen Brouwer anno 2018 (2018).
