About this title

Synopsis

Paintings, works on paper and commissions by Dutch artist Anuli Croon (b. 1964)
in Rotterdam between 1999 and 2015 fill the pages of this handsome, densely
illustrated monograph. Brilliantly colored geometric shapes cover her large
canvases, creating graphic depictions of people and places. Croon s use of flat
one-dimensional shapes for depicting her subject matter accentuates her bold
forms and colors and creates a pop art like feeling with reference to 1990s graphic
designers and artists Mike Mills, Will Sweeney and the noted Geoff McFettridge.
Contributing essays by Vera Illés, Aat Ceelen, Maarten Janssen and Dees Linders
describe and provide insight into Croon s large, clear paintings in which figures
and fragments of a metropolis meticulously rendered in intense color, patterns and
texture are unsettling in their anonymity.
