A single brushstroke can evoke a series of nuances in the work of Vincent de Boer. You can feel in the image the concentration with which he works and his mastery of material and technique. From this basis, he creates a variety of works, on paper, murals and live performances. With his animated film The Stroke of 4056 drawings, Vincent de Boer won the debut prize at the Dutch Film Festival in 2021. - Tableau Magazine
