Stephan Balleux

Stephan Balleux es un pintor belga nacido en Bruselas en 1974. Sus pinturas tienen un nexo común: en casi todas utiliza grandes cantidades de material (pinta al oleo) que distribuye generosamente formando texturas casi tridimensionales, o eso parece, es posible que en realidad no sea así, haría falta verlas en persona para poder apreciar la diferencia. Otra característica no muy usual es que, en alguna serie y también al oleo, no utiliza colores, solo negro y acaso ocre oscuro. Son pinturas de gran formato que sin duda deben impresionar verlas al natural.

Stephan Balleux is the current artist in residence at Wardlow studios in Fitzroy. He is Belgian artist, based in Berlin. His finely executed paintings, very flat and smooth in themselves, feature detailed representations of smears, globs and whorls of thickly applied paint. His work has been compared to Glenn Brown and Gerhard Richter.

However Balleux goes further than the pop and historical references of Brown. As he explains in this interview, while he continues and extends Richter’s explorations of the processes of painting, his work demonstrates more faith in the reality and power of images and the possibility for a painting to be “alive”.

Good Places to...

Walking around and through the ICA in Boston over the weekend, I could help but be drawn to the overhang of the building.

While from the outside it’s one of the defining marks of the building it was what I experienced inside that left me wanting to talk further about it. Inside the overhang there’s two spaces that I saw. The first was a large room to sit. Giant windows give a good view of the water. The second space was quite special.

There’s a bunch of iMacs descending towards the water like a lecture hall. But instead of a white board, the front of the room is defined by water. If I were to ever have the chance to make a working space near water, this is exactly what I’d want. It was such a unique and calming experience. Sitting down the silence sounded like music. If only all spaces could aspire to such a level of sound design.

Un breve libro con tres relatos cortos de Ache de Neostalgia.

El texto titular cuenta el día en que el Sr. Aburto asesinó al candidato a la presidencia de México en el ‘94 y los noticieros se comieron la transmisión de los Simpson, arruinándole la noche a muchos niños de la época que no entendían la seriedad del asunto.

Ecolean Packaging Ecolean is a new packaging alternative dubbed as “A Lighter Approach to Packaging”.

“Lightweight packaging is our answer to the demands of the liquid food industry and consumers asking for modern and clever packages. By using a minimal amount of raw material we create a lightweight package which combines l o w environment a l impact w i t h c o n sumer convenience.

Saving resources is saving the environment.

That is why lightweight packaging has bec o m e a

heavyweight argument.

The unique, pitcher-looking design has a generous face for consumer communication. It has a perfect surface for really high-quality print.

Colours and sharpness will do justice to any communicative intention and will certainly draw the attention of a fast moving consumer.

Saving resources is no longer just a matter of looking at the waste end of a package life cycle. Equally important are the resources used at its beginning.

Ecolean uses less raw material from the start. Our packaging material is made from a thin plastic film, part plastic (PE and PP) and part chalk (40% by weight), one of nature’s own material. That adds up to a truly lightweight package that takes less energy to produce.

Low waste volumes also save considerable resources in the waste handling process. Light and thin as the packaging is, you will find resource-saving arguments for it throughout the whole product life cycle.”

Ecolean products are currently sold in over 30 countries around the world, not yet here in the United States, but lets hope it makes its way here soon. the packaging is, you will find resource-saving arguments for it throughout the whole product life cycle.”
