His paintings bear witness to this. Furthermore, with his series of ‘white box paintings’, he continually challenges himself to find new ways of depicting reality. And through his plein air studies, he draws attention to the fragility of nature. Despite all this variety, the retrospective exhibition of Kuitwaard’s art at Museum JAN in Amstelveen is, above all, a plea for slowing down and deepening one’s understanding.
