With the photo exhibition Standards, Marc De Blieck shows a selection of images he has made over the years. Within the conventions of the genre, he presents himself as an executor of a collective directory, not as an “image author.” The locations that the pictures depict are of an institutional context: protected monuments and landscapes and objects in museums. The photographic positions do not reveal any new views or insights; the vantage points are not unique, nor critical. Diametrically opposed to the politics of digital imaging and, in an absurdly naive way, De Blieck symbolically positions a return to the old school photography.
