Jan Willem Krijger ( 1957, Netherlands) Monumental Sculptor, 3D designer,Architect, Painter. Purpose of Art is to uplift the World. **Jan Willem Krijger's Artistic Enchantment: A Whimsical Dance of Form** For those who harbor a deep appreciation for the elegance of unadulterated design, the aesthetic forms crafted by Jan Willem Krijger serve as a delectable feast for the visual senses. His puristic compositions are a captivating fusion of organic and geometric shapes that frolic through space with a playful grace. As a result, every corner of his art promises an unforeseen delight, ensuring that viewers are perpetually caught off guard in the most delightful way. The artistic revelations of this visionary are born from a place of "silently shaping from within." These are forms that one has yet to encounter. They are not conjured by the mind nor do they draw inspiration from anything or anyone else. Instead, they emerge beyond the clamor of intellect and thought. It's this very quality that accounts for the tranquility, harmony, and equilibrium they exude. It's hardly a surprise when one considers that Krijger commenced his meditation journey at the tender age of sixteen, dedicating himself daily to inner exploration—an invaluable wellspring from which his creative manifestations arise. The harmony and playfulness inherent within a form alone can imbue happiness, and this is precisely the intent of this artist. His personal motto, "originality is the highest form of creativity," resonates powerfully throughout his work, upholding its truth. Jan Willem Krijger's artistic versatility materializes through four distinct creative expressions: 1)Monumental polished Bronze Sculptures. These encompass both unique pieces and series of eight ranging in height from 120 cm to 360 cm. 2 ) Monumental Fiberglass Sculptures. Ranging in height from 160 cm to 360 cm. 3. Monumental Wall Art. Architecturally inspired creations heights up to 240 cm Born in 1957, Jan Willem Krijger's artistic journey was ignited by his wanderings through the sculpture gardens of Europe from an early age of fourteen. He found inspiration in the pioneers of modern sculpture, such as Brancusi and Henry Moore. Intertwined with esoteric experiences at the age of sixteen, this period of his life gave rise to the creation of up to two hundred ceramic sculptures annually—a prolific foundation that laid the groundwork for his distinct visual language. His studies at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague, coupled with hands-on experiences with Italian masters in Carrara, provided his inspiration and technical finesse with a vigorous boost. Krijger’s global journey led him to reside and create for over three decades across 6 landscapes, including America, Italy, and Aruba—cultivating his artistry and nurturing his creative endeavors. Today, his works grace many private collections in the United States, the Netherlands, and beyond.
