Blossom – in the air, 2010

acrylic paint, inkjet print on canvas
76 x 117 cm (2 parts)

Note / After the Blossom paintings of 2009, in 2010 Van Warmerdam made a new series of Blossom works, in which the striping, stamping and sweeping is replaced by a mainly pointillist technique. The touches and streaks of paint are applied to the canvases using small and large brushes. Van Warmerdam wanted to give this work an airy title.

Note / The point of departure for the large Blossom series was again ‘highlighting what the image already contains’.
