An(ton)ius Willems (1954 Nijmegen, the Netherlands), a graduate of the Royal Academy of Art and Design in 's Hertogenbosch in the Netherlands has spent the past 40 years gradually developing an extensive œuvre as a sculptor and a painter. His intimate approach to art directed by a highly refined formal sensibility gives his quiet and disarmingly simple compositions a delicacy of colour and extraordinary subtlety of design. Although his works are abstract they often draw inspiration from and communicate feelings experienced in the natural world. The paintings of this artists’ artist convey a mood of contemplative repose reminiscent of the work of Giorgio Morandi, whom he admired.
