About ‘Red for Oskar (ode to Oskar Schlemmer)’ by Kees Schouten
One of my favorite artists is Oskar Schlemmer. The shapes of these vases reminded me of shapes he also used a lot. In my still life, I intentionally used a color combination that is also found in his paintings.
This work is from the series "Stolen Colors"

After leaving the academy in 1984, I painted for many years. Since about twenty years I have really only made photographic works. Mostly still lifes with glass vases. Glass is a fantastic -but also difficult- material to photograph.
I like to put people on the wrong foot with my works. Hopefully you recognize this when you see my work. Still lifes from a different perspective.
