Mark Rietveld (1969-2022) was known in Antwerp for his photography in which he photographed the underground music scene and art world. At concerts, Mark paid equal attention to what was happening on the periphery of the stage, his camera unobtrusively at the ready, in between chatting here and there. He was part of the furniture he had chosen as his subject. A few days after such an evening, a careful selection appeared online, giving those absent a glimpse of what they had missed. For those who delve further into his oeuvre, you will find a photographer for whom the whole world could be a wondrous subject: his archive is full of hushed moorland scenes, torn hoarfrost floors, still lifes, cats, parks in the snow, timeless figures in Prague or Paris and domestic scenes, ... Mark photographed, in short, with a great deal of love, his entire biotope.
