    Aquisition on behalf of the Flemish Comunity. View of a curtain before the window at 4pm., screenprint in 12 colours on BKF Rives 250g/m² paper. Published by Graphic Matter, Antwerp. Printed by Roger Vandaele at Tubbax, Antwerp. Signed and numbered in pencil. Edition of 60 signed and numbered in Arabic numerals. 10 AP

    The image originated from a stay of Luc Tuymans in a hotel room in Malmö in 2009 during the setup of the exhibition "Against the Day". The subject of the print is a window with curtains. City ​​lights are shining through. The result is a darkish brown-green image. The image is an evocation of a melancholic and alienating stay.
