Description

Human-crafted. AI-refined.

The artwork features a black and white image of two men in suits, with the text "Culture Is Our Business" prominently displayed above them. The composition is striking and symmetrical, with the two portraits flanking the central text.

Jef Cornelis

1941 , Belgian

Experimental Belgian film director Jef Cornelis is a pioneer in investigating the relationship between art, television, documentary and artist films. From architecture and historic buildings, art and exhibitions, to processes of film and TV making, he subverts and tests the format of TV reporting, exploring the intersection of mediums amidst socio-cultural and political realms.

During his work at BLT (the Belgian Radio and Television company) between 1964 and 1998, the filmmaker produced over two hundred live broadcasts, essays and documentaries, thereby bringing exquisite, avant-garde work to the mass audiences and turning television into art. ...
