Retrospective exhibition – Part II: Recent works and war paintings
The second part of the dual anniversary exhibition in Ermelo showed more recent paintings, dating from the last 20-25 years, as well as paintings made by Viktor during the Bosnian War (1992-1995). This exhibition also showed several more “sketchy” pencil drawings, most of which Viktor created on a single day in June 1989.
Together the two exhibitions provided a fascinating overview of the many developments and distinct phases in Viktor’s long career.

Retrospective exhibition – Part I: Early works
In May and June, Viktor celebrated 60 years of exhibiting with two retrospective solo exhibitions in Ermelo. On the first exhibition, early paintings – dating from 1958 to the early 1990-s – as well as drawings and collages were shown. The opening, on May 12, was performed by Arnold van Verseveld, chairman of StEK (the Artists’ Collective Ermelo).
We look back with warm feelings at the well-attended opening, as well as at the exhibition!
