The prolific and radically diverse career of Dutch sculptor, furniture designer, and ceramist Guido Geelen is reflected in this monographic survey spanning the period 2000–2022. The artist’s unorthodox outlook on the use of materials such as clay, bronze, iron, aluminium, glass, and textiles finds expression in an iconography of recognisable contemporary and classical images. The book considers Geelen’s autonomous and commissioned work, as well as museum presentations and objects in the public domain. Besides texts by Hendrik Driessen and Hans den Hartog Jager, it includes an essay by the artist, entitled “A good Work of Art lifts you out of your earthly Existence”.
