all this here. herman de vries

herman de vries is truly a pioneer - one of the first artists not to represent nature, but to present it as it appears to us. In his view, nature is not a collection of isolated phenomena; rather, everything is interconnected. This holistic, ecological perspective makes his work more relevant today than ever. This publication is released in conjunction with the exhibition h'erman de vries. 70 years nature as art' at Rijksmuseum Twenthe, Enschede (24 May – 9 November 2025). It includes a comprehensive essay by Cees de Boer, texts by Caroline Breunesse and Josien Beltman, and an overview of de vries’s remarkable body of work.
