Parkett Vol. 38
Quote from Parkett
“Ever-enquiring into what is reflection, what is real, what is love, what is violence, what is pain, what is lust, what is presence, what is absence, Marlene Dumas constructs, like a piece of architecture, a feeling with corridors, doors, rooms, and empty spaces, many empty spaces, but without a single resting-place for the banal which is perhaps the beginning of evil: the banality of self-deception.” Anna Tilroe, Parkett No. 38, 1993
