About the Item

Geometric wall relief by Henk van der Plas (1936–2009), The Netherlands 1977. An intriguing and large-scale work presenting a rhythmic composition of geometric forms in paper mâché on wood, finished in an off-white mineral paint. The surface reveals the artist’s refined and tactile approach. Van der Plas studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague and was part of the The Hague–based constructivist group De Groep. His work is characterized by monochromy, an ongoing exploration of light and shadow, and a clear visual language based on geometric forms, repetition, and regularity. The angled surfaces catch the light in subtly different ways, creating a dynamic and constantly shifting play of shadow across the relief. The work is included in the monograph featuring important works by Henk van der Plas. In excellent condition.

Minimalist Geometric Abstract Relief in Tonal Whites by Dutch Artist
Located in AMSTERDAM, NL
Expressive abstract relief in white by Dutch artist Henk van Putten (1936-2019) Van Putten called himself a constructivist in the tradition of Vladimir Tatlin, with whom he shared not only aesthetic principles but also social commitment. For example, almost everything he made in 3D is made up of several parts; glued, welded or screwed together. In his paintings, which he often made prior to the 3D version, he even painted the seams where they would appear in the later work. Van Putten’s work, although easily recognisable, shows a clear affinity with artists he admires such as André Volten, Gerrit Rietveld and more generally with ‘De Stijl’. Yet he made no contact with them; he felt much more like a kindred spirit of German artists, especially the ZERO movement whose members, like himself, were strongly involved in society. He befriends people like Egon Eppich and Hap Grieshaber...
