From Here To There III
Revue Lagon & Dieter Durinck
27/11/25 - 07/12/25
VROOM presents From Here To There, an exhibition series focused on books, space, and graphic narrative. Join us for the opening on the 27th of November from 16:00.
For this event, VROOM puts in dialogue the different magazines edited and printed by Revue Lagon and the many publications and pictorial works of Gent-based artist and publisher Dieter Durinck. Although coming from different artistic backgrounds, both Dieter and Lagon share an artistic process that focuses on tackling book-making from different angles: from self-publishing to publishing the work of other artists; from placing the printed matter into the space to understand the exhibition space as a blank book.
Revue Lagon, the Paris-based magazine formed by Séverine Bascouert, Jean-Philippe Bretin and Sammy Stein, will turn VROOM into a reading space for their many publications: the viewer, turned into a reader, will be able to leaf through the pages of their many publications, while getting comfy with oversized pages of their new issue turned into warm blankets, created for this exhibition.
Dieter Durinck, Ghent's best kept secret, is a visual artist whose work ranges from painting to graphic design, passing by music or curating. At VROOM, Durinck showcases a selection of the posters he has designed over the years for various exhibitions at Social Harmony, the art space he runs together with Dieter Ravyts. The posters, disposed in vertical plastic folders attached against the wall, are interspersed with a selection of some of his later paintings.
