Zijn eerste kennismaking met kunst gebeurde thuis, waar hij vanaf 1947 meewerkte in het restauratie- en schildersatelier van zijn vader. In de tweede helft van de jaren vijftig gaat hij zelfstandig kunstwerken maken: zelfportretten geschilderd op een glanzende monochrome achtergrond. Reflectie vormt vanaf het begin een steeds terugkerend motief in zijn werk.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDit is zeker het geval voor zijn spiegelschilderijen (vanaf 1962), waarin hij roestvrije staalplaten gebruikt om figuren op te kleven. Later worden de stalen platen vervangen door spiegels en plexiglas en zal hij levensgrote foto\u0026rsquo;s gebruiken of figuren rechtstreeks zeefdrukken op de verschillende dragers zoals hier. Door de weerspiegeling die de bezoeker kan waarnemen, ontstaat er een dialoog tussen de wereld van de toeschouwer en de wereld van de kunstenaar \u0026ndash; de Ander. Het gebruik van een foto is voor de kunstenaar belangrijk omdat het zijn manier is om tijd bevattelijk weer te geven. In deze werken gaat immers het heden, in de vorm van het spiegelbeeld van de toeschouwer en zijn omgeving, een relatie aan met een beeld dat in het verleden is vastgelegd.\u0026nbsp;\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"ru","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"de","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"es","short_description":"","description":""},{"locale":"el","short_description":"","description":""}],"actors":[{"id":126,"name":"Michelangelo  Pistoletto","category":{"en":"Creator","nl":"Vervaardiger","fr":"Créateur"}}]}
