Logogram 1972 entitled.
' There in the North winter is a long thought, springtime is
a short thwack, summer is a long throb, autumn is a short thanks.'
Christian Dotremont was born in Tevuren in Belgium in 1922.
Through all his life Dotremont experimented with the art - wanted to
find the importance of art. Incessant he worked with words - pictures and
signs looking and uncovering the facets of art.
Dotremont couldn't stop playing with words and concepts - twist them
in his own filosofic way, and each time end up with a surprising result.
Even though he worked with many aspects the most important was always the
words.
Dotremont was a poet, he expressed his feelings and thoughts to the
spectator on the beautiful whiteness of the paper. He created torn signs
from written arabesques, which he named 'Logogramms'.
