Philip Dujardin: Modernism on steroids

In its early days, collage, characteristically messy and rough, captured the energy and restlessness of a yet undefined Modernism – of a need for change driven by social and economic changes, and by the optimism of technological progress. These days some collage has turned clean and realistic, and seems to mark the other end of the modernist spectrum: a time focused on making the modernist remnants liveable again.

Many architects are face-lifting, inflating or blasting the modernist block that in many of its sites, often originally on the urban perimeter, have created zones of social and environmental unrest. Where their revitalisation schemes are ofttimes driven by a sense of practicality – of new cleanliness through full glass sur faces and parasitic structures living on the existing rigid systems – it is the work of the occasional ar tist that brings the modernist vision to a different level all completely. A few years ago Filip Dujardin, a Flemish artist, started reconstructing a new idiom out of the modernist condition.
