Basic Rhythms of Being: Linda Vinck. a Life in Patterns - Softcover

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Linda Vinck (born 1942 in Antwerp, lives and works in Mortsel) is a painter who focuses on the concept of rhythm and repetitiveness in her work. She constantly repeats signs or symbols according to rhythmic patterns, until they eventually merge into one whole. She uses lines, shapes and colors in this way, making her canvases seem to grow organically. The organization of chaos and structure in disorder are the keys to her work, both in her graphics and in her paintings. Linda Vinck has been building up a coherent graphic oeuvre in the past thirty years. She experiments with sizes: from small to very large, and explores the technical possibilities. She is a master of relief printing, but she also surprised with stunning dry-point works. After a spell on the Cape Verde Islands she introduced in the serial work a new topical concept of the arts: synesthesia, the connecting of different sensory spheres, in this case the relationship between her visual work and music.
