Danny Bergeman (Izegem, 10 September 1960 / lives in Bissegem) is an artist with Down syndrome. He worked intensively on the book for seven years in art workshop De Zandberg. It is his life's work in which he writes down a reflection on his research in art books, catalogues and magazines. In trying to make this commentary, he develops an abstract geometric note-taking system. He scans books image by image, abstracting each image and listing it in a non-hierarchical system that he builds from left to right, and line by line like a text. "The Zandberg Drawing / 2011-2018" is a facsimile of the original book.
