About the Item
The memories, notes and photographs that Rolf Weijburg takes with him from his distant travels are the sources of inspiration for his work. The etchings he creates are characterized by the details of flora and fauna, architecture and culture, landscapes and maps. Together they give an idea of the area Weijburg has visited. He tells the stories about his travels in his etchings.
After several years of traveling, Weijburg began work in 1986 on ‘L'Afrique Périphérique - Een Atlas van de Eilanden rond Afrika’. Using the islands as a magnifying glass of Africa, the project allowed him to work for a long time on a large series of African-inspired color etchings. Rolf Weijburg traveled to all the archipelagos and isolated islands around Africa. He charted these mostly unknown areas in a special and unique way. Subtle references to the colonial past are incorporated into Weijburg's maps. Although the artist took the necessary poetic liberties, he did not violate the topographical facts. The color etchings made following these travels were awarded the Nederlandse Grafiekprijs in 1992. Since 2002 Rolf has been working on his most recent project: ‘An Atlas of the World's Smallest Countries’, a series of color etchings about the smallest countries in the world.
Rolf Weijburg moved to Utrecht in 1970 to study Social Geography. Although Weijburg's fascination with maps was partially satisfied with the course Cartography, his interest in foreign countries proved to be too great to be satisfied by this study. After a year he quit Social Geography for art school and traveled regularly during this period of his studies. He specialized in the etching technique and graduated from the Monumental Department in 1976.
Works by Rolf Weijburg can be found in the collections of the Rijksmuseum Amsterdam, the ING Collection, the Drents Museum Assen and Rabobank Nederland, among others.
