BERNARD DESCHEEMAEKER - WORKS OF ART
Enamels, Sculpture and Works of Art from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
Bernard Descheemaeker (°1964) studied art history at the university of Louvain.
After museum experiences at the Kunsthistorisches Museum in Vienna and the Rubens House in Antwerp, I worked for 10 years in the art trade. In September 2000, I founded my own gallery (located in Antwerp) which is specialized in enamels, sculptures and works of art from the middle ages, the renaissance and the baroque (c.1150-1650).
My main specialities are Limoges painted enamels from the renaissance -with a current collection of more than 50 pieces- on the one hand and Northern European late gothic sculpture, mainly from Flanders (Brussels, Antwerp and Malines) on the other. Besides, I also present medieval champlevé enamels, gothic ivories, decorative bronze objects, tapestries, Antwerp ceramics and 17th century Flemish and Dutch paintings, oil sketches and drawings.
I try to focus on top-quality objects for an international clientele comprising collectors and museums alike.
In contrary to most dealers, I participate only very rarely in fairs, but present my newest acquisitions through my website (www.worksofart.be) and, in particular, through catalogues.

BERNARD DESCHEEMAEKER - WORKS OF ART
From 08/03/2021 to 04/04/2021
The present period which I consider to be the transitional years between two historical periods, spontaneously remind me of the years 1450-1520. At that time a number of events occurred which similarly changed political structures, economic developments, religious life and the thinking of people in Europe to such a degree, that nowadays we regard that period as the transition from the Middle Ages to the Modern Era, or in cultural terms, as the shift from the Gothic to the Renaissance.
The present catalogue contains a selection of works of art, which were all created in the transition years between the late Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
