Lot Essay

‘Many terms have been used to describe my work: peinture relief, peinture mixed, peinture sculpture, peinture Baroque, peinture matière. More important to me than terminology, however, is the ever-returning problem of how to make good paintings’
(Bram Bogart quoted in F. Legrand, Bram Bogart, Tielt 1998, p. 99).
