Maurits van den Noort (English)

Maurits van den Noort: "My work is what I am and what I feel."




Dr. Maurits van den Noort (Dordrecht, 1977) is autodidact with respect to his artistic work. He paints from his intuition, and the bird - as a symbol of freedom is a frequently returning element. Because of the primary colours combined with a Prussian-blue background and an appropriate and original frame, every contemporary work of Maurits van den Noort is highly recognisable.

Welcome to the colourful and slightly mystical world of Maurits van den Noort. After several national and international exhibitions and several commissioned art works, Maurits van den Noort can be seen as a skilled representative of the youngest generation of Dutch painters.

Expressive. Lively. Colourful. Slightly mystical... It is impossible to describe the paintings of Maurits van den Noort in one word.

His work shows both power and vulnerability. It appears open because of the absence of a protecting glass plate, but at the same time mysterious. In short: A Maurits van den Noort is full of life for the attentive spectator.

Theme, the use of colour and the especially Dutch made frames make sure that the work of Maurits van den Noort is at home in almost every interior no matter whether it concerns a private house or a commercial and industrial building. The illustrations show that a painting of Maurits van den Noort is a special ornament at every wall.

Besides his own work, Maurits van den Noort also makes commissioned (impressionistic) oilpaintings and pencil- and pen drawings. Please do not hesitate to contact the artist directly if you would like to have more information.
