“I think that if you do not fit into an existing category,
you have to be or become one on your own.”

Willem Harbers 2019

Some time ago, Willem Harbers and I (Gérard Goodrow) traveled together to Santorini for the opening of the exhibition T-FACTORY featuring new works by our mutual friend, the art photographer Christophoros Doulgeris. We were on the island for a few days and had some very good conversations and debates about contemporary art. The idea arose to publish a new booklet on Willem’s most recent work.
.
The idea has become reality: The booklet we envisioned now lies before you, and the following text reflects the conversations we had.
We hope you find it as fascinating and inspiring as we did at the time.
My sincere thanks go to Gérard Goodrow, Toon Beekman, Gerrit Heeres, Anna Rudolf, Anne Harbers, Galerie Franzis Engels en Donopoulos IFA
without whose help this book could never have been made. Many thanks to you all!
