Paul van der Donk (Groenlo 1976)
Royal Academy of Fine Arts the Hague ( 2004 - 2007 )
Graphic prints made with traditional techniques such as woodblock print in combination with material prints with " ready made " objects.
For example an old Nintendo Gameboy or recycled wood from used empty wine boxes or cheese packages.
All objects have been used but are no longer needed or usefull.
Together the works form a visual diary of a certain period.
Traces of the production process such as holes from staples or serial numbers remain part of the work.
The series "Gameboy" 2017 was made with simple materials and a simple lay out.
A powerful and iconic image that relates to the Gameboy period .
Materialprints on linoprint made with the backside of an old Nintendo Gameboy from 1987.
The print with details of the serial number refers to the large scale productions.
Within Graphic Printing it is also common to produce in series. Therefore the subject is in balance with the used technique.

Since januari 2019 Paul van der Donk is working member of the Hague Art Circle..
