Belgian neo-conceptual artist Wim Delvoye presented about 50 works at the Aliyev Center in Baku. Delvoye presented a series of fantastic works, including "Concrete Mixer", "Nautilus", "Daphnis and Chloe", "Carved tires". A graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent, Delvoye is famous for his inventive and even shocking projects. In his unique artworks, the artist presents European traditions transforming it through the perspective of modern mass culture. By this, he manages to combine components in various contexts and give them brand new meaning and content. Statues that combined patterns and ornaments in contemporary storylines have brought success to Delvoye. Inspired by medieval craftsmanship with Gothic filigree, Delvoye mixes the delicate craftsmanship associated with Gothic architecture with the heavy, brute force of contemporary machinery. Exhibition: Heydar Aliyev Center, Baku, Azerbeidzjan (13.04.-27.09.2015).
