Bewilderment – image and display

What do I think about when I think of Paul De Vylder? To the only artist-philosopher dreamed by Nietzsche. Not as a successful synthesis, but as a monster that is causing unrest in both areas and leaving these two areas without any areas. What do artist and philosopher have in common? Both are bewildered, dismayed, perplexed. This is the way I see, the way I thing Paul De Vylder: as someone who, on the edge of the furthest, is and remains bewildered – about one's own monstrosity, and who wants to remain like this, always equally fresh, equally naïve.
