About the Item

Johannes Boekhoudt is a Dutch artist born on October 20, 1966. In 1973, Boekhoudt immigrated with his parents to Costa Rica, eventually working as a commercial and air ambulance pilot until moving to Texas. He is best known as the artist of crosses, working in many formats, especially large oil on linen and canvas. An inventive creator, he also constructs elemental sculptures out of reclaimed materials such as wood and old clocks. Since the beginning of his career, the core themes of his works have revolved around human rights, social justice, children’s rights, and women’s rights. Boekhoudt addresses atrocities such as child abuse, domestic violence, and organ trafficking, as well as social injustices arising due to worldwide political instability. The unlimited panorama of global crises encouraged him to become a journalistic artist. Documenting those social matters creates an opportunity to empower the younger generation to make a change. Boekhoudt fulfills his humanitarian vision by donating his works to charity auctions and other social nonprofit entities. He currently lives and works in his art studio in Rockwall, TX. Boekhoudt’s work is included in a number of public and private collections both nationally and internationally.

  • Bloom
    By G. Campbell Lyman
    Located in New Orleans, LA
    (Comes framed in a deep-profile maple floater frame, ready to hang.) Artist's Statement: "I was working on my loose, almost graffiti-like "Rosetta" series when this painting took a turn towards formality, and instead of trying to wrench it back into the Rosetta mold I just let it go where it wanted to. Has my usual insane assortment of mediums . . . " “Lyman’s work evolves restlessly, with the common elements generally being deft and unusual color choices that balance assonance and dissonance, and vestiges of the hand and facture purposely left in the paintings. The negative space is often so meticulously worked that it’s almost as if the objects – usually simple shapes – are there as much to complement the background as vice versa. Despite the often bold colors there is an elegance about his paintings that prevents them from being either loud or decorative. " Artbeit Zeitschrift “His paintings are a refreshing departure from the current abstract art world’s seemingly endless parade of fields of color with scribbles providing form, a style that is easily mimicked and has become a sort of “safe,” accessible go-to. There are confident decisions in these paintings appearing as commitments of strongly delineated forms and unexpected collisions of color that give the work a visceral, confident and playful soul, increasingly missing from contemporary expressionist abstraction. They are the paintings of a real painter rather than a decorative artist.” ArtSeen, 2018 (from a collector): "Love your work. We collect colorists like Wolf Kahn and Jennifer Bartlett, whom I commissioned a piece from that is in the entrance of Mayo Clinic. We are old fans...
