STUDIOLIFE


WORKING HARD



All oil paint

Historically inspired



During this residency of three months I plan to work on several series with different themes. 

Every time returning to Berlin (and I have been coming here for 20 years), but especially working here, the painful history is so extremely visible and feelable, that I just need to paint it.

This series tells about history and contemporary times, inspired by historical photos, but also of my memory and experience visiting those places.

A selection of this series will be on view during the exhibition "Berlin Lockdown", Past - Present - Future" at Livingstone Gallery The Hague ( 09.08.2020 - 29.08.2020) with Jolanda Meulendijks en Harry Markusse with a meet & greet on Sunday 9th of August.
