User Profile

Working as a contemporary artist, René van Leeuwen (1960) moved himself around in
almost any art-related direction or technique possible, a so called 'mentality artist'.
Oil and acrylic paintings, installational art, performance art, (digital) photography,
web-related art, conceptual art, environmental art, grafic art, music, writing, new media etc.
Nevertheless all his different and outstanding art is recognizable mainly by it's strong
visual appearance combined with it's unmistakable social content. Questioning almost
everything that can or even must be questioned, the artist is looking for those clues that
can help him along on his 'long and winding road'. It's up to you, the consumer,
what to do with the expression and content the artist provides you with. Simply
ignore it, or join in and hop on his caravan: "If it feels good, just sing along baby!"
A wondering magical and mythical path, a celebration of life itself. Looking for
something 'worth stealing' using 'support' as keyword to open up all doors.
Against mainstream and ignorance all is just. The myth ain't busted Sonny...
