Uit Knowledge Graph Kunstenpunt
Verscheure calls himself a chronicler. His paintings and video work are his diary writings. They are painted impressions of newsflashes, internet views and of experiences in the field (he was for example in Bosnia at the end of the war). His paintings are a statement. His videos are confronting. His art is political. No such things as crowd pleasing are his assets but wilful and stubborn working in his studio on what is important for him.
As a curator, he focuses specifically on group exhibitions that offer the public a surprising view of art. Each exhibition he curates bears a title, which is the flag that covers the subject matter. A recurring underlying theme is the fact that art makes people happy, even when the works on display do not immediately portray happiness.
