"Sean Scully is considered one of the world's most prominent abstract painters. Born in Dublin in 1945, he grew up in London and now lives both in New York and in Germany. His work shows the diverse historical and cultural influences of places that have had great importance to him at different times. He has taken inspiration from many cherished and richly varied elements in European culture (ranging from ancient Greek architecture's ideals on harmony to the traditional design of stone walls in the Irish countryside) but also from Islamic art, architecture and history. Scully has successfully responded to – and built upon – the legacy of abstract art in the United States. Over the past two years the painter has returned to more recognizable motifs, having been inspired by photographs that he had taken of his son playing on the beach. A selection of these works can also be seen in the presentation at De Pont.--Museum website."@en
