Phenomena like the Warholian 15 minutes of fame and the vanity of the art world. The artist rants and raves as a “real” zapper/rapper, crosser-over and (re)mixer of visual art, advertisement, journalism, entertainment, infotainment, poetry and hip-hop. At the same time, an accomplice and critic.

Ignace Van Ingelgom (BE), born 1954, lives and works in Ghent, Belgium. Studied at the Higher Institute of Graphic Education, St. Luke and the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Ghent, Belgium. He has been regularly invited to many national and some international group and solo exhibitions. At the same time he also been very active in the public sphere, publishing on a regularly basis (artistic) text messages in the Belgian art periodicals “De Witte Raaf” and “H’art”. With his performance Now or Never Ignace Van Ingelgom for Ever! he won the prestigious “Grote Prijs – Grand Prix” De Canvascollectie / La Collection RTBF.
