Tekst achterflap

Bas Meeuws' photos are classically beautiful yet radically contemporary. He composes his still lifes piece by piece, but digitally: the basis of Meeuws' monumental works are photos of individual flowers. There is a nod towards the Dutch masters of the seventeenth century: their sense of luxury, but also their eye for the transient. Meeuws' still lifes have touched a chord in the art world. He is represented by Dutch, Taiwanese and Indian galleries and exhibits from Amsterdam to New Delhi.

'Meeuws' assortment of flowers seem to emerge yet elapse into their inky black backdrops, revelling in sharpness, flaunting texture, pore and vein.'
