Wunderkammer 2018 - 150 X 200cm - Private collection
On Saturday, 10 May, join the free entrance tour through the exhibition Koen Vermeule - Poetry Suite. A wide selection of works are on show at Museum JAN. Paintings and gouaches - many of them never shown before - that depict his world, his perception, his view of the environment and the people in it. The images originate in unspectacular, everyday life. The urban landscapes are often pointed observations of our own time and contemporary human behaviour, while his landscapes are characterised by silence and timelessness. However, the works have nothing mundane about them: they carry something universal and enduring, and also often something intangible. ‘Ultimately, I want to say something about themes such as love, desire, life, death, contemplation, the passage of time. Music and the art of others, which I carry with me, also play a role in this,’ says Vermeule.
