This publication provides a unique retrospective of the multifaceted nature of the work of painter Ren歋 Dani鋀ls, against the backdrop of the art scene and underground culture of the 1970s and
1980s. Dani鋀ls (b. 1950) is considered one of the leading Dutch painters of his generation. He gave the art of painting in the Netherlands a new 歋lan like no one before him. In his work he
links the visual arts and their rich past with history and everyday life. Ambiguity and double meanings play a major role inhis work. A cerebral hemorrhage in 1987 made it impossible for
Dani鋀ls to work for an extended period, but his oeuvre is still relevant, vital, intelligent and a source of inspiration to new generations.
