I just “discovered” Piet Tuytel and his art and made my first acquisition. I have encountered his works on numerous auctions and always thought his work to much random, but now that i have read more about the artist and have seen some of his works exhibited, i must alter my opinion. This is far from random. He varies on a theme and uses the materials you can find at construction markets in a way nobody does. Using colors to enhance and constructing/ welding materials to make his sculptures and multiples. The multiple i have acquired is one from a series of 3. Signed numbered and dated 1990. In this period he uses rubber hoses. mesh, constructing steel and in this case a baking form for cakes. The impression he makes with this ‘ ADONIS” is a strong person perhaps a body builder , just the outline and one keeps being fascinated by the materials used. Rough , but a joy to look at and admire. The “Adonis ” sculpture is now available at www.ftn-books.com
