Prachtige prent van één van Nederlands bekendste kunstenaars: Marc Mulders. Het onderwerp is een prachtige bloem (Delphinium) waarin een kleine collage te ontdekken is: een uitgescheurde afbeelding van het oog van de H. Maagd. Zo brengt Mulders de bloem als beeld voor het leven tot uitdrukking. Zijn "fotografische" collages tonen licht en schoonheid en hebben volgens de kunstenaar zelf "bijna altijd iets vierends, van een viering van het leven".
De zeefdruk, gedrukt in 2007 bij CS Printed Editions te Eindhoven op 250 grams Laurier in een oplage van 150, komt in zijn originele cover.
Marc Mulders (1958) trained at St. Joost School of Art & Design in Breda. Mulders is a versatile artist; he is a painter, a watercolourist, a photographer, and a glazier.
Tilburg period
In 1995, Marc Mulders relocated to an old convent school in the heart of Tilburg (Netherlands). In his pastel-coloured oil paintings, he allows himself to be guided by the rhythm of nature. Marc Mulders lives and works according to tight schedules – not only in his daily routine, but also in his choice of subjects. In spring and summer, he paints flowers, such as tulips, lilies, irises, and peonies; in winter, he focuses his gaze on wild animals such as pheasants, fish, and hares. And once he has selected a theme, he usually creates a series of paintings. Marc Mulders, a religious man, is fascinated by profound themes such as life and death. He is inspired by painters such as Rembrandt, Chaïm Soutine, and Vincent van Gogh.
Marc Mulders is also an expert in making stained glass windows. In 2004, he designed the piece A Garden of Glass for the Nieuwe Kerk in Amsterdam to commemorate the 25th anniversary of Queen Beatrix’s reign. Two years later, in 2006, he created the large stained glass window The Last Judgment for St John’s Cathedral in ‘s-Hertogenbosch. He also recently collaborated with designer Piet Hein Eek to create a contemporary version of centuries-old stained glass.
Marc Mulders is not only famous for his paintings buts also for his collages. These collages symbolise ligth and beauty and show the celebration of live. The silkscreen comes in its original cover.
