Dutch, b. 1962
Hans Withoos: Photographic Painting Reimagined Limited Edition Fine Art Photography | Archival Pigment Prints
Hans Withoos is a Dutch fine art photographer whose work occupies a compelling space between classical iconography and contemporary visual culture. Describing his practice as photographic painting, Withoos blends meticulously staged photography with painterly digital manipulation, producing limited edition archival pigment prints that are as technically refined as they are conceptually rich.
A graduate of the Academy of Visual Arts in Tilburg, trained in both textile design and photography, Withoos draws on a wide spectrum of visual references, from classical antiquity and baroque opulence to the ornamental flourishes of art nouveau and the dream logic of surrealism. His signature style is instantly recognizable: hyper-saturated compositions, theatrical settings, and allegorical narratives rendered with exquisite detail.
Withoos’s celebrated series Withoos meets Withoos is a singular dialogue across centuries, where the baroque still lifes and landscapes of his 17th-century ancestor Matthias Withoos are seamlessly integrated with fantastical contemporary imagery. This body of work exemplifies Withoos’s ability to fuse history and innovation, offering viewers a visual experience that is both grounded in tradition and strikingly modern.
Over the course of a career spanning more than three decades, Hans Withoos has garnered international recognition, collaborating with cultural institutions such as Introdans and Stichting Orange Babies. His recent monograph, Photographic Paintings, consolidates his vibrant oeuvre, celebrating his contribution to the evolving field of fine art photography.
Each work by Withoos is offered in a limited edition series, printed with museum-grade archival pigment processes, ensuring both longevity and exceptional color fidelity. His photographs invite sustained contemplation, luxurious, symbolic, and deeply layered, they resonate with collectors and curators alike.to
