Résumé :
Kurt Ryslavy?s 'Flemish Art Assets' is an arrangement wherein Kurt Ryslavy performs as a businessman, selling Austrian wine to the public and painting his bookkeeping; i.e. the bills of the sales he is actually doing on the spot. But Ryslavy is also a businessman and a serious art collector. For the ?Flemish Art Assets? project he invited Flemish artists to make a statement about their work(s) within the Ryslavy-collection.
