Product description
Verwiel, JosVet, Ramon Jan Henk van Vessem Henk van Vessem Biography Henk van Vessem (Rotterdam, 1939) Henk van Vessem is the artist of the grand gesture. Expressive and dynamic. He may be seen as a fixture in Dutch art circles. For years his work has been shown in a select number of renowned galleries and is now part of private and corporate art collections at home and abroad. His work is also included in the art collection of the Royal Family. His poetic streak is clearly recognizable in his art, as evidenced by the titles he gives his paintings and screen prints. These point the viewer the way to an entirely personal memorable experience.Henk van Vessem is an artist who paints with a grand gesture in sharply contrasting colors, at least as far as canvases go. The pastels are of a more gentle nature and exhibit softer colors. With the drawings, the representations become almost transparent and the emotional values of color give way to the spiritual values of transparent colors.The representations on the canvases are sculpted with paint and palette knife into expressionist landscapes, in which there are no fields or roads to be seen, but rather the signs of reflections of a mental nature. The artist does not shy away from the inversion of the question-and-answer game, as evidenced by the title of one painting, "The water asks for time".The painting "The horizon has become water" does not bear the atmosphere of a watered-down plain, but rather has the opposite quality of a large expanse of sand sweltering with heat. Time, space and matter become exponents of inner imagination in the art of Henk van Vessem. Perception takes place "under the foliage of your hair," as evidenced by the title of one canvas. Contrary to what this title suggests, the artist's thoughts in his painting are clearly formulated and expressed in brilliant colors.Above our heads is a sun of fiery thoughts". A sentence could not sound more eloquent, and the canvas that bears this title shows fire as a source of new order and possibility in a world of familiar interpretations. Color and form manage, with mutual coherence, to be able to interpret a world of meanings that is without boundaries, or in other words, less bounded than spoken language to speak "for itself.
