A time to consider, a time to plan

In the quiet time of January, after the hustle and bustle of Christmas and the festive season, I wanted to send you my warmest wishes for 2024.

This is a time when we look back over the year that has drawn to a close, as well as looking forward to the year to come. I’d love to share some of my memories and inspirations with you here from my creative path through 2023. Thank you for joining me!

Anselm Kiefer ‘Bilderstreit’ exhibition at Voorlinden, Wassenaar 

‘Art is longing. You never arrive, but you keep going in the hope that you will.’

Anselm Kiefer

‘Anselm Kiefer is a tireless polymath with an infinite number of interests. The artist is always looking for new insights and meanings. And this is clearly reflected in his layered work. In his work, he interweaves Germanic mythology, history, poetry, literature and philosophy. He uses traditional and unconventional materials, such as lead, bricks and bicycles. He exposes his works to the elements, sets them on fire, adds life-size objects or chisels away previously applied layers. In this way he creates true symphonies full of texture and meaning, on which he keeps working endlessly. Because for him, a work of art is actually never finished.’

This stunning and inspirational exhibition runs until the end of February at Voorlinden gallery in Wassenaar.

Nature can’t be improved on, and these cabbages caught my eye at my allotment.

Thank you…
