abstract: "Jos van Merendonk's paintings make use of ever shifting 'scenery elements', so that our perspective can change from day to day or even from hour to hour. In Van Merendonk's work we find pure painterly space, which has nothing to do with the life in our immediate surroundings. His work is always green and always takes time to reveal itself. It is unclear whether we are looking at a small space defined by paint or an enormous one. Yet it is always measured in human terms: the measure of Van Merendonk. Both concentration and pleasure play a major part in his apparently austere starting points, so that his paintings develop as independent identities in a remarkably simple way"--Francis Boeske, Hans Gieles in foreword.
