PETER HERMANS
There can be no celebration, no joy for life without freedom.
The paintings of Peter are a fusion of forms and colours, in which recognition and abstraction are unified.
He feels related to the modern classics of the early nineteenth century.
Especially the Fauvism of Matisse and the Cubism of Gris.
Without repeating himself every work is a unique representation, but they also bear the seeds for new developments.
The work of Peter Hermans is a journey, on one hand firmly rooted in traditions and craftsmanship, on the other hand revealing freedom of exploration and expression.
