PHOTO EXHIBITION
Alex Vanhee
16 June 2016 – opening
[CHEZ PIAS] is proud to present a second photo exhibition, as a follow up to the acclaimed ‘One Minute After Project’ by Olivier Donnet. The exhibition offers a condensed overview of Alex Vanhee’s portrait work, containing among others pictures of Nick Cave, An Pierlé, dEUS, Arno, Editors, Kristin Hersh, Moby, Melanie De Biasio and Daan.
Alex Vanhee (1965) is the go to music photographer for national daily De Morgen, and freelances for a host of local and international publications. He has contributed to album artwork (Chris Whitley, Iggy Pop, Willem Vermandere, Bram Vermeulen, Laïs and Monza), and is the official photographer for classic ensemble Anima Eterna. Alex has shown his work at Bozar Brussels, FoMu Antwerp and various Belgian concert venues.
In the 2004 book ‘Heroes’ he combined portraits of artists with stories about their musical heroes and inspirations. For the 2010 follow up ‘Face 2 Face’ he collaborated with journalist Bart Steenhaut, his long-time partner in crime at De Morgen.
[CHEZ PIAS] is open weekdays (free entry 9:00 - 17:30) and also offers a well-stocked record shop, concert venue and the Humphrey restaurant.
The opening of Alex Vanhee’s photo exhibition will be on June 16th at 19:00.
