« The six artists presented here embody, each in their own way, the ideal of dandyism. Some of them stage modern or contemporary artists (from various milieus including rock music, opera, or the visual arts) who were able to invent themselves through their art. Others show us a visual world of dreamlike drawings or paintings, which unite the subtle with the morbid. Several of these works denote a biting, caustic sense of humor, which put into question the prevailing tastes and indicate a certain fatigue with the contemporary world. »
