The artist constructs an image that appears simultaneously flat and spatial, inviting viewers to experience subtle shifts in depth and movement. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUsing industrial lacquer on masonite, Dusépulchre achieves an exceptionally smooth surface that enhances the painting's optical precision. Every colour transition has been carefully calculated, allowing the work to generate a remarkable sense of visual vibration. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDusépulchre (1934–2013) trained as an art teacher before turning, self-taught, to painting and sculpture. From 1979 he began stretching wires across his panels, and by 1983 was embedding optical fibres to generate points of light — a body of work centred on how structure, incision and light interact across a surface. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: Synthetic lacquer on masonite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: 100 × 99 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYear: 1974–1975\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"page\" title=\"Page 14\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"layoutArea\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"column\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eExhibitions: \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMaurice Verbaet Gallery – Art Brussels, Brussels, Belgium — 25\/04\/2024–28\/04\/2024 · Maurice Verbaet Gallery, Knokke, Belgium — Summer 25 — 01\/07\/2025 – 15\/09\/2025 \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThis artwork forms part of the maurice verbaet collection and can be viewed in our showroom at Volkstraat 58, Antwerp.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"maurice verbaet collection","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58061115949439,"sku":"MV_32_Dusépulchre_Spatial_1974,1975_6726","price":13600.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/2307\/2055\/files\/2E6A2912.jpg?v=1785158298","url":"https:\/\/immodome-objects.be\/products\/spatial-by-francis-dusepulchre","provider":"Immodôme Objects","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
