Description from the seller

Louis Derijks (1929-2020) was a Dutch artist and teacher, born in Aalst. He started with figurative work featuring religious themes and still lifes, but after 1960, he increasingly moved towards abstraction, often using special materials such as handmade paper and walnut ink. His work exudes stillness and spirituality, influenced by his religious background and interest in contemplation. Derijks won the Eindhoven Municipality painting prize in 1959 and had a retrospective exhibition at Museum Kempenland in 1995. His oeuvre is known for reflection, simplicity, and rich materiality.

In this abstract work, Derijks demonstrates his ability to evoke a deep sense of calm and introspection with minimal means. The composition consists of geometric planes in soft, earthy tones – gray, beige, and broken white – with subtle accents of rust brown and blue-gray. The paint and materials appear carefully built up in thin, transparent layers, creating a sense of layering and depth.

This artwork comes from the collection of the Eindhoven Museum. As part of the transition to Museumpark Vonk, selected works are being disposed of so that the museum can fully focus on the history and identity of Eindhoven.

Dimensions with frame: 102 x 123 cm
Dimensions without frame: 100 x 120 cm

Viewing is, of course, possible. Additionally, we have our own in-house framing workshop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore, we collaborate with restorers from the professional organization: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you wish to make use of this service, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
