Quinten Ingelaere (°1985, Ghent) lives and works in Antwerp (BE) and Rosciszow (PL). Since 2014, he has been teaching painting at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts Antwerp. His paintings interpret, redefine, and recontextualize classical themes, iconography, and recognizable, collective visual language. Recently, he has been focusing on the painterly archiving of found and self-designed objects. A visual archive in which he works from direct observation and seeks to assign new connotations to objects that meet each other in strange ways.
