Publisher's Synopsis
Paul de Moor freezes pictures, snapshots, conversations, impressions and emotions to form a portrait of Luc Tuymans like water turning gradually into ice. In this book de Moor invites the young reader into the strange and gripping world of Luc Tuymans, one of the most important contemporary artists on the international scene. 'My grandfather is a huge hat in the park. His face a black patch under a wide brim. He's holding me firmly by the hand. We're feeding the wild ducks and the geese. It's cold. Ice cold. My grandfather's voice comes from the black patch under the wide brim of his hat. A warm, soft voice. A grandfather voice. A big-hat voice. With stories in. With stories he told me and with stories he would tell me one day.'
