Long Description

* A beautifully published book on the visual artist Casper Faassens, whose work uniquely combines photography, painting and craquelure* The first monograph on the artist* Author and literary critic Onno Blom provides the accompanying texts"With his technique, Casper refers to the theme 'Vanitas' that was often used in 17th-century painting: symbols that represent the transience of earthly existence. This places Casper in a long line of painters who have passed on inspiration from one generation to the next." --Meta Knol, director Museum De LakenhalBeauty is central to the artworks of Dutch visual artist Casper Faassen.
