It is only recently that his work has started to be appreciated for what it is. Dillemans is an idiosyncratic painter. A master in the purest sense of the word. He paints because he cannot help it, full of dedication and passion, getting everything out of that he can. He needs canvas, paint and brush to get to grips with the world, he lives and sleeps among his paintings. In his uncompromising quest for his own force of expression, Dillemans creates an authentic oeuvre that by now has secured a place of its very own in the contemporary Belgian art world, averse to any trend. He chooses a particular theme and then elaborates it according to his own pictorial system. He explores the theme in a realistic approach, but gradually internalises the subject so that the essence comes to the fore. The visible world is just a mask, according to Dillemans – a mask, behind which lies the diversity of the invisible, that hides the real, authentic world. That is the world that Sam Dillemans tries to seize. The handling of paint and colour are at the heart of every subject for Sam Dillemans. Non-anecdotal. Cézanne knew how to elevate a simple table with fruit to a timeless image; Dillemans does the same with themes that he takes from the old masters, his daily life, boxing, writers, and his models. Sam Dillemans shows you the world of Sam Dillemans. And the world as Dillemans experiences it. A fascinating book, with an introductory essay by Jon Thompson and a very broad selection of paintings, drawings and prints., [PU: Ludion, 2007]<
