Ses toiles de renommée mondiale, comme La Laitière et La Jeune Femme à la perle, ont fait de lui un peintre de légende. Quant aux scènes d’intérieur, d’une réserve tout intimiste, elles figurent au rang des œuvres les plus magistrales grâce à leur illusionnisme étonnant et à la maîtrise uniq...

Unique view on the 'tronies' in art from the Netherlands

Our fascination for faces transcends eras and cultures. Turning Heads – Rubens, Rembrandt and Vermeer highlights a remarkable genre in painting to which little attention has so far been paid: tronies or study heads, which were intended first and foremost to depict an emotion or a character trait. Since the model’s identity did not matter, painters could truly go to town with these heads. Tronies were drawn and painted by some of the...

This monograph brings together Rody Luton’s artistic practice in its diversity: painting, photography, drawing and mixed media. Covering three decades, it invites a dialogue across time as well as mediums. Rody Luton.Time Encircled presents her oeuvre as a journey of exploration, as if wandering in a landscape, encountering both human-made and natural environments.

Nature is the vital inspiration. In Rody Luton’s own words (from the Preface): ‘I reach out to the natural world and engag...

van Heren tot Peren

"Een peer is voor mij een komische vrucht. Het woord alleen al is inspirerend!

De peer heeft met zijn rondbuikige vorm iets weg van de moderne welvarende mens.

Hij leent zicht uitstekend om die te belichamen."

In dit boekje treft u humorvolle 'peren-schilderijen'aan. Marius van Dokkum houdt ons daarmee een spiegel voor.

Een uitgebreide en vergrootte herdruk van het gelijknamige boekje uit 2012

Bespiegelingen in het licht. Vivid Reflections. 84 pagina's, full colour, harde kaft.

De sfeervolle werken van Ton Dubbeldam verbeelden de realiteit en benaderen abstractie. De voorstellingen zijn divers: nu eens een zonnig terrasje in Frankrijk, badend in een warm, zomers licht. Dan weer de staalblauwe Noordzee, bezien vanaf een strandje met glooiende duinen. Dubbeldam neemt de toeschouwer mee op een tour door Europa. Maar de echte reis voert niet over la...

The definitive volume on Gaetano Pesce's incomparable life and career, as told in the iconoclastic artist-designer's own words

This new monograph, published in partnership with the Centre Pompidou, presents more than 80 of Foster's key projects, alongside essays by Frederic Migayrou and Philip Jodidio.

An expansive and timely survey on contemporary British photographer and artist Nick Waplington, with work spanning his entire 40-year career - his first comprehensive retrospective volume

Even in his early work, which I first experienced when I visited his studio in 1994, you can find the origin for what are now his actual heptagonal sculptures (seven sided). To develop an artist’s own distinct signature is a lifelong process and has many forks in the road. Christian Hack’s determination to find his way is both, relentless and admirable. This book shows an incredibly creative and energetic sculptor who has found his ‘voice‘ and is not about to stop.

Looking at his wo...
