A rare opportunity to acquire an original large-format silkscreen print by Luc Tuymans

Celebrated as one of the world’s most gifted visionary painters, Tuymans has been creating iconic works of art for nearly three decades. For The Worshipper he collaborated with a master printer in Antwerp to create a screen print based on his 2004 painting of the same name, the source of which was a photograph Tuymans took in the Musée International du Carnaval et du Masque in the Belgian town of Binche.

‘I was mostly using Polariods, which attenuate the colours, making things unclear and imprecise. Polaroids don’t provide the same accuracy as digital or film photography, and they present more inconsistencies. I like to work with materials that are inconsistent because they leave more room for interpretation.’
