Catalogue of joint exhibition held at Palais des Beaux-Arts, Brussels in 2001. Devoted to the art of the art of the twentieth century, 'Look!' seeks to transmit rather than pass judgment on a century in which presentation has replaced representation. The challenge taken on by 'Look!' is to present the works of art in such a way that they present themselves, that they address us, their spectators, and that they speak to all of us. 'Look!' is therefore divided into three parts: 'Here I Am' presents works in which human beings are presented even if they are not specifically represented; 'Here You Are' features works that address their spectators face to face and rely on the viewer to complete them; and 'Here We Are' displays a community of works that testify to what binds us together as a global human society. The present catalogue also features extensive text by renowned art historian and philosopher Thierry de Duve.
