Bemerkung:

Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - Ger van Elk's oeuvre is characterized by an enormous variety and diversity. His agile mind is constantly probing the limits of what is possible, seeking a completely new beginning in every work. Nearly every year his work assumes a new guise, both in its subject matter and the underlying principle of its design. To van Elk, art is synonymous with taking risks, pushing back borders. As he himself puts it: 'Making art means sticking your neck out, going too far, exploring. Security and certainty are death to art. Making art is always a restless business. Dogma is a friend of the church and an enemy of art. Not surprisingly, the development of his work does not describe a clear or logical line but pursues a very changeable, erratic course. The different series, or rather the different groups of works, are more or less self-contained entities with their own problems and appearance. ISBN 9069181134
