X-Nico

Ronald Ophuis

His large works from the last few years demonstrate how he has primarily looked to the nineteenth century for references; to the likes of Goya, Géricault, Delacroix, Courbet and Manet (a tradition continued in our century by Picasso, Golub and Richter, with Jeff Wall as the contemporary exponent).

In 2003 Ophuis travelled to Srebrenica, where he talked with local people about their situation.
