The video shows the veneer flaws. The painted panels are made of anodized aluminum. It is a technique that aluminum is anodized, the aluminium panel can absorb aniline color pigments; these are color pigments that are dissolved in acetone or dimethyl formamide. This requires smooth work, comparable to painting a fresco, where correction of errors is not possible. Minnebo also made this panels aluminum panels for reception halls and house facades and as decoration in restaurants and stations. His work is refined with a controlled use of colours. Free shipping for purchase in Europe The oeuvre of sculptor, jewelery designer and graphic artist Hubert Minnebo has been in the spotlight for fifty years. Not in the front row, but also indispensable. Between realism and idealization. Without overestimation, and with an unmistakable noblesse d'âme. This monograph charts Minnebo's remarkable artistic journey and is generously illustrated with photographs of his life and work. Well-known critics and several artists and friends of Minnebo are collaborating: Octave Landuyt, Jan Walgrave, Marc Ruyters, Dirk Martens, Marc Paesbrugghe and Fonny Boesmans. Frans Boenders, President of the Royal Academy of Belgium for Sciences and Arts, explores the connection between life and passion, travel and art in a series of conversations. Minnebo and Boenders spin a common thread together, which makes this book an enchanting story. (Source: Wikipedia)
