‘You do not have to be a great connoisseur or observer to notice the magnetic power in the art of Thierry De Cordier. It looks like you are drawn into his work, encouraged to come closer, tempted to want to touch and own it, to become part of it. However the closer you get, the more you feel the tendency to flinch back. Thierry De Cordier’s art always seems to preserve some rejection. Exactly at the moment you think you possess the work, its maker, its idea, exactly then you find that rejection again, within the ascesis, inside the deep black’ (Jan Hoet, Thierry De Cordier – Tekeningen (1983-1999), exh. cat., Ghent, S.M.A.K., 2002).
