Berlinde De Bruyckere

Berlinde De Bruyckere (born 1964 in Ghent, Belgium) is a leading figure on the contemporary Flemish scene. Her work ranges from sculpture to drawing and collage, in compositions that present intense forms of metamorphosis in bodies, be they human, animal, or plant. A relationship with art history and cinema is particularly important in her creative process.
With a career that has gained increasing international recognition, Berlinde De Bruyckere represented Belgium at the 55th Biennale di Venezia in 2013.
