Hendrik Dijk's show So Far, So Close, October 3rd - November 14th, 2009

Hendrik Dijk’s work is about energy. He is a colorist who will use form, find and create for the purpose of letting colors have a life of their own. Dijk thinks that colors are like humans; each one is unique and likes to have good neighbors. Therefore, even though his work is often chromatically pronounced, he always asks himself if each color harmonizes with neighboring colors. Born in Oostmahorn, Friesland, Netherlands, Hendrik Dijk moved to the USA in 1983. Since 1986, he has lived in Kingston, NY and teaches art at Kingston High School. He has made six murals for the City of Kingston in city parks. Dijk’s present creative efforts go mainly into painting and photography. He is a co-founder of the Arts Society of Kingston and the Kingston Biennial Sculpture Show.
