{"product_id":"bouke-de-vries","title":"Bouke de Vries","description":"\u003cp\u003eBouke de Vries, based in London, gets the viewer thinking with his extraordinary artworks of broken porcelain and discarded shards. He creates extraordinary works of art from broken porcelain and pottery and discarded shards. With these he makes the viewer think about what beauty and perfection are. This combination of craftsmanship and creativity makes his art both visually impressive and conceptually stimulating. De Vries' museum work is included in many leading international collections and he is represented by leading international galleries. This book presents an overview of the highlights of his career, in which he plays with the theme of decay and recovery. In his still lifes, relics and large installations, Bouke de Vries respects the history of objects, but adds humour and depth. The observant viewer experiences how the life of an object through the ages changes its owner, context and meaning. Several international art critics wrote a contribution for this book.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eText in English and Dutch.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Uitgeverij de Kunst","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55283427836248,"sku":"9789462626287","price":52.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9789462626287_a1f6e3f0-c828-45fb-827a-791fe5463e47.jpg?v=1765748732","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/bouke-de-vries","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
