Reverse Perspective

Reverse Perspective revolves around practice-based architectural, art historical, and philosophical research on presence via images, buildings, and texts. In the book, Belgian architect Wim Goes explores three of his main projects: Yohji Yamamoto Boutique Antwerp, Royal Belgian Sailing Club, and Refuge II. Crucial to the books introspection is the conversation between Volkmar Mhleis, professor of philosophy and aesthetics at LUCA School of Arts in Brussels and Ghent, and Bulgarian art historian Clemena Antonova, who discuss the concept of reverse perspective in relation to Orthodox icons, cubism, the cinema of Andrei Tarkovsky, and paintings by David Hockney.
