Detalii despre produs

The work of Jaap Mooy (1916 - 1987) covers more than 50 years , in a period in which he constantly explored new paths and re - invented himself in terms of styles and techniques . Although Mooy became closely involved with the Cobra movement, he had no desire to become a member of the group . He was one of the first Dutch artists to use scrap metal to create sculptures . T ogether with Karel Appel and Lucebert, he represented the Netherlands at the Venice Bie nnale in 1964 . As the basis for sources of inspiration i n the 1970s and ’ 80s , he alternated between the geometrical, the conceptual and the figurative . However, throughout his work, his attitude remained unchanged , coloured by a dark vision of th e human condition : a cynical view of power and those in power , a critical attitude towards society , an unshakable faith in the task of art : to choose the s i de of victims while maintaining the poetic nature of the image . The orthopaedic shoemaker Jacques Defauwes and his wife Miny , well - know n art collectors living in the s outh of the Netherlands, first came into contact with Jaap Mooy in the early 1980s, and it was not long before a close relationship evolve d . For the couple from Limburg, nothing was too much trouble or too costly in purchasing everything the artist and sculptor from Bergen created . Visits by the couple to Bergen were reciprocated with visits by Mooy to Ingber in Zuid - Limburg . The physical distance was also bridged by an intensive correspondence by letter . These letters often reveal ed the extent of Jaap Mooy’s inspiration and defiance concerning art and the state of the world , and his critical view of the submissive morality of the church . But he also encouraged Jacques and Miny to look – to really look – and to read . Mooy would recommend the works of Kafka, Camus, Celine, Beckett, Peter Sloterdijk, discuss exhibitions with them, and call attention to art books on the works of artists like Botticelli, Schiele, Klimt and Rodin , as wel l as more modern, contemporary artists . T his is how the charismatic Mooy – his work driven by engagement – came to play an influential role in their art collection and all other cultural activities they committed themselves to . In a letter to his patrons , Jaap Mooy writes : ‘ You may use a shoe mould to make a shoe to continue your journey , but do not forget that the soul, the spirit, is also a mould .' This luxurious monograph is a homage to Jaap Mooy, the artist from Bergen, situated in the NorthWest of the Netherlands, by Jacques and Miny Defauwes, the well - known art collectors from Limburg, in the SouthEast of the country. It provides a profound inside view into the...
