An exhibition catalogue showcasing previously unseen works spanning from 1983 to 2023, ‘Passe-montagne’ offers insight into the practice of Thierry De Cordier, who might best be described as a non-academic thinker who makes things. His oeuvre includes photographs, drawings, placards, paintings, sculptures, assemblages, and bricolages. These ‘objects’ and ‘non-objects’, as he calls them, can be viewed as representations of a philosophy expressed in images. De Cordier’s worldview leans heavily towards the concept of absurdism, which describes the futility of searching for significance in an incomprehensible universe, devoid of either God or meaning.
