Johan De Wilde maakt verdichte tekeningen met vette kleurpotloden op kartons in standaardformaten.
Doorheen zijn tekeningen lopen lijnen die herinneren aan de snelheid van filmbeelden.
In het werk van De Wilde beweegt echter niets; het ontstaat op terreinen waar geen geluid nog doordringt,
waar vormen en kleuren louter herinneringen zijn aan vormen en kleuren. Via deze subtiele potloodtekeningen spreekt hij
over de grote en kleine bewegingen van het leven. In de reeks Carte Blanche nodigde Voorkamer Johan De Wilde uit om een presentatie te
maken rond het persoonlijke vocabularium van de kunstenaar. Op zijn beurt nodigde Johan De Wilde zijn kijkers uit om deel uit te maken
van en mee vorm te geven aan “zijn solotentoonstelling” in de Heilige Geestsite te Lier.
Meer dan 140 kunstenaars en niet-kunstenaars formuleerden een subjectieve associatie op het werk van De Wilde.
Al deze bijdragen - een ander beeldend werk, een voorwerp, een gedachte, een postzegel, een filmfragment, de vage herinnering aan muziek of een geluid,
- worden nu gepresenteerd samen met nieuwe werken van De Wilde zelf. De opzettelijk grammaticale fout in de titel ik wordt refereert dan ook naar
vragen die Johan De Wilde al jaren bezig houden: Hoe gedraagt een kunstwerk zich bij anderen? Ben ik mijn werk?
Wat doet de kijker precies als hij kijkt? En daarna? Wat zien de duizenden bezoekers van de Sixtijnse kapel? Wat verwachten zij er te
zien en waarom zijn zij daar?
Parallel aan de tentoonstelling verschijnt de gelijknamige publicatie ik wordt, een bundeling van de tekst- en beeldbijdragen,
uitgegeven door Studio Luc Derycke (MER).
Als associatie op het werk van Johan De Wilde installeerden Morrens & De Boe een kabinet aan de ingang van de tentoonstelling
met werk van Birde Vanheerswynghels, Bits & Pieces, Cel Crabeels, Chet Baker, Claire L. Evans, Clary Stolte, Étienne Léopold Trouvelot,
Geert Goiris, Glenn Sorensen, Gustave Flaubert, Hans-Peter Feldmann, JCJ Vanderheyden, Johan De Wilde, John Stezaker, Karel Schippers,
Leïla Brett, Michelangelo, Ori Gersht, Peter Fischli & David Weiss, Peter Morrens, Rein Dufait, Richard Forster, Rik De Boe, Ruth van Beek,
Ryan Brown, Sylvie Monden en Wouter Coolens.

The series OPPERVLAKTES (surfaces / from 2005) consists of 8 paintings on which I apply thin layers of acrylic paint since 2005. Each painting started on a different time making it one work thicker and heavier than the other work. In 2007 the series were exhibited in the exhibition CONCRETE ZAKEN, Nieuwe Vide, Haarlem, the Netherlands, a group show curated by Jan Maarten Voskuil. The text below about the series OPPERVLAKTES, is written by Jan Maarten Voskuil for the catalog of this show. In the exhibition SLOW FREEZE, GEMAK, The Hague, the series will be exhibited again. This time presented on a table, as part of the installation ‘Model 005/the function of the studio’ – SLOW FREEZE, January 18 – March 2, 2013, GEMAK, The Hague. Clary Stolte / 2013
OPPERVLAKTES – So lets take a piece of art serious and enter it openly. Let’s begin with what represents the most basic identity of painting: A white monochrome. For decades white paintings regularly appear in exhibitions. As an example, we do not take one but a series of paintings entitled Oppervlaktes (Surfaces). Usually a white painting is interpreted as a reference to the beginning and the end of art. But we can also look at a white painting as an independent work and not as a conceptual comment on painting. What are the intrinsic qualities of the work and do they exist? When we think of artists immediately the name Robert Ryman appears but Ryman has a very personal handwriting which is not the idea of concrete painting we would like to discuss. More concretely the zero artists of the sixties are confronting us with monochrome white painting. They use not only the conceptual meaning of white (zero), but they also use its intrinsic quality. White reflects all colours and mirrors the light to its full extent. In the series Oppervlaktes the entry of light is surely one of the qualities of the work. Here it is about identical bright white canvases. When you study this further you can see the canvases are not entirely identical. Close inspection betrays a minimal difference in the structure of the surface and gloss between the works. However smooth the works have been painted, a brush visibly has been used. Along the edges minimal differences are visible especially when you lift the painting (unfortunately this usually is not allowed at exhibitions), then you feel the real difference. One canvas is much heavier than the other. The weight is because of the amount of paint used, not because of the stretcher or the canvas. One painting can contain 10s of 100s of layers of paint while another work very few. Once you have the canvas in your hand, it is impossible to see the works as equal anymore. The works gain identity by touching them, holding them or studying them. You could say something becomes something when it is noticed. In the series Oppervlaktes, the meanings are about subtle differences in weight structure and luminosity because many layers over a long period of time have been applied to the painting. The consistency and dedication of the artist plays an important role in the background. Even when you do not know who made it. The fact that someone made this effort indicates that natural forces were at work. Jan Maarten Voskuil, catalog Concrete Zaken / 2007
