Installation view of Joost Vandebrug’s photographic works at Art Paris 2026, including a nine-part grid of floral images.

ART PARIS | Grand Palais | April 2026 | Bildhalle gallery

Joost Vandebrug explores how separate views and moments come to be seen as a whole. His landscapes gather fragments into places that feel familiar, even when no single place could contain them. The image takes shape through remembering and looking, while the joins keep its construction visible.

In Pillow Book, memory rearranges what a photograph records. In Not Yet the Image, partial views delay the moment when a subject becomes recognisable. Book of Hours reverses that relationship: one small card leaves a larger composition and becomes a landscape in its own right.

These are different ways of testing how an image holds together. The visible gaps and traces of making allow us to recognise a view and question its coherence at the same time. In the video installations, that tension unfolds through separate moments joined across several screens.

Time enters the work as change: in the world photographed, in what memory retains, and in what each return to an image makes possible.
