"A sketchbook is a collection of ideas. Intimate snap shots. You can begin again and begin again and begin again. You can turn the pages and close the book." These words are from artist and writer Felicity Allen. She made a book to help you to start a sketchbook, illustrated by historic and contemporary artists.

The art practice of Dirk Zoete (1969°, BE) is mainly drawing. The artist talks about his sculptures and installations as a way of drawing. He constructs an utopian architecture, independent of reality, but with a logical and practical base. Sometimes the character of his work is childish, or even naive. Zoete tries to focus on what he calls survival architecture. 

Lecture (in Dutch) on September, 27, 8 pm, library Aalst.
