Hedendaagse humor en speelsheid  vermengd met<br \/>\nhet klassieke ideaal van Vermeer.<\/p>\n<p>A number of the portraits of Paula are clearly reminiscent of Johannes Vermeer. The austerity of the photograph, its clarity, the serene expression on the young girl&#8217;s face, and not least, the characteristic &#8220;Dutch&#8221; light, all combine to create this impression.\u2028 However, Kerstens was not just imitating painting. As the series progressed, he became increasingly interested in the game of creating a conceptual and humorous dialog between past and present. The titles give the game away. &#8220;Napkin&#8221; looks like a maid&#8217;s bonnet. In &#8220;Bag&#8221;, a plastic grocery bag is shaped to look like a lace hood. In other pictures no pretense is made to imitate 17th century clothing but Paula&#8217;s face and Kerstens&#8217; light turn a thoroughly modern hoodie into a classic and timeless garment.<br \/>\nConceptually, Kerstens&#8217; photographs play with the dialog between the mediums of painting and photography, with seriality, and time. On a more emotional level, they address everyday reality while expressing his love for his child, and the knowledge and development of his craft.<\/p>\n<p>Bron: http:\/\/www.danzigergallery.com\/artists\/hendrik-kerstens<br \/>\n      http:\/\/www.hendrikkerstens.com\/<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gezien bij opening expositie Photography Extended, Museum Het Valkhof Nijmegen, 16 juni 2013 \u201c\u2026\u2026.
