Karel Buskes (b. 1962) is, understandably, becoming a recognised forerunner of the exciting contemporary movement of New Dutch Realism. As with other artists working in this new genre, Buskes manages to allude to the paintings of the Dutch Golden Age whilst, at the same time, presenting extremely modern images.
Karel Buskes' new exhibition of stunning paintings of black and white dairy cattle echoes the work of the Dutch Realists, making use of exquisite composition and glorious passages of texture and colour.
