CHAUSSURES Icécé, 1980
Mixed Media , variable dimensions
ink, paper, paint, wood

Guillaume Bijl realizes a shoe shop called *Chaussures Icécé* for the exhibition ‘1980’ in the ICC-exhibition space. The inspiration for this work comes from the posh shoe shops on the Meir in Antwerp. *Chaussures Icécé* is Bijl’s third transformation-installation and the first, that in the context of the art-liquidation projects, is not a so called government initiative.
