The Vervoordt curatorial aesthetic has best been displayed through a trilogy of exhibits exploring the universality of art.
The first was Artempo at the 2007 Venice Biennale in the Palazzo Fortuny. Academia:Qui es-tu? was held the following year in Paris. The final exhibit in the trilogy concluded at the 2009 Biennale in the Palazzo Fortuny and was titled In-Finitum.
Unfortunaely there is not enough time or space in this blog to give Vervoordt's rare and enlightening vision justice.
Hopefully the following images will at least give you a glimpse of his artistic and aesthetic view of the world.
