Description

The work of Peter de Cupere makes a statement about our experience of smell. He starts from the suppressed history of smells which, in our culture, still lead an almost underground existence in comparison with the official, culturally celebrated sensual experiences By exploiting the subjective, associative impact of smells, in combination with visual images, Peter de Cupere generates a kind of meta-sensory experience that goes beyond purely seeing or smelling. He paints with scents, produces olfactory objects and sculptures, creates video and live perfumances, makes scent drawings and builds poetic smell installations He experiments with every possible use of smells like a contemporary alchemist. Though the whole of his work is about the perception of smells and how smell can be context and/or concept of the work - this book includes 500 artworks, 472 pages, more than 1500 illustrations and images, 22 images with 11 different scratch and sniff hidden smells Text in English and Dutch Scent in Context is a unique document that witnesses the olfactory artist Peter de Cuperes research, the origins and context of his work and practice, and that offers a view and presentation of more than 500 artworks. 7 authors, 472 pages, more than 1500 illustrations and images, 22 images with 11 different scratch and sniff hidden smells, all make this 3kg book a complete guide to discover the world of olfactory art. The publication will surprise and interact with the reader with soft and beautiful smells but in contrast might also shock while presenting intense or mind-teasing smells. Refine your nostrils when reading this book. By exploiting the subjective, associative impact of smells, in combination with visual images, Peter de Cupere generates a kind of meta-sensory experience that goes beyond purely seeing or smelling. Plastic artist De Cupere paints with scents, produces olfactory objects, soap paintings and sculptures, creates video and live performances, makes three-dimensional drawings and builds poetic smell installations. Text in English and Dutch.
