Portfolio of 7 prints, each 58x46cm. One is signed by the artist, the other 6 are signed with monogram by the artist.

Fenêtres by Luc Tuymans, created in 2012, is a portfolio consisting of seven digital prints, each exploring the subtle interplay of light and shadow in a quiet interior setting. The monochromatic images depict window scenes, capturing light filtering through curtains or casting shadows across empty spaces. Each print, measuring 58 x 46 cm, is imbued with a sense of isolation and introspection, as if observing the world from a secluded, almost voyeuristic perspective. One of the prints is hand-signed by Tuymans, while the remaining six are marked with his monogram, adding a personal touch to this limited edition of 50 portfolios. Known for his meditative approach to everyday scenes, Tuymans here invites viewers to contemplate the quiet, transient beauty of light and the passage of time within confined spaces.

Luc Tuymans (Belgium, 1958) is a prominent contemporary painter known for his muted palette and enigmatic imagery. His works often explore themes of memory, history, and politics, blending realism with abstraction. Tuymans is considered a pivotal figure in the revival of figurative painting and has exhibited widely across major international venues.

Peaches and Technicolor , 2013

Limited Edition Print

Renowned for his figurative paintings that depict images sourced from existing visual materials such as television, print and film media, Luc Tuymans is an artist who explores the cultural and historical meaning of events, often providing a different context or perspective through his trademark choppy brushstrokes and a muted, darker palette. Tuyman's subjects range from historical world events such as the second world war, to the mediocrity of every day– among his most notable works is his Heritage series which was created in response to the Oklahoma City bombing; the paintings capture the artist’s notion of a ‘traditional American life’ with subjects including a working man, a birthday cake and a portrait. Of his unique method of transforming existing media into a form of evocative art, Tuymans has remarked “There is a physical element intertwined with the painting [of an existing photograph]. It shakes loose an emotional element within the viewer.” (Artist website)

What is appropriation?

Appropriation in art involves using pre-existing images or objects with little or no modification. This technique has played a significant role across various art forms, including visual arts, music, performance, and literature. In visual arts, appropriation refers to the practice of adopting, sampling, recycling, or borrowing elements—or even entire forms—of existing visual culture, integrating them into new works to create meaning or critique.
