Peter Schuyff: Works on paper 1984-2018

35 years of works on paper by the contemporary Dutch artist.
“Peter Schuyff is a fascinating little bastard and he presents a good opportunity for thinking about painting.
Painting is personal. There are no ultimate truths about it. Much of the most perceptive writing about painting, especially new painting, in the last 200 years has been produced by poets-Baudelaire, Rilke, Apollinaire, Ashbery, Ricard-rather than trained “experts” because what there is that's interesting to say about it is best accessible via the language skills and sophistication and sensitivity to subtleties of perception and consciousness cultivated by poets. I am not a poet, but I almost am, and I claim legitimacy as an art writer by the same token: nobody knows what is interesting in art except the person who can persuade you they do.” - Richard Hell
