In the 1980s, Hannes van Es began creating abstract paintings. The paint was applied to the canvas with a smoothing squeegee. This had to be so pasty that the grooves remained in the paint. For this, he had found a manufacturer in Spain who produced a tough paint specifically for him. Van Es designed a wrapper for the paint cans and they were marketed under the name ‘Vanes Paint’.

This black and white photo was taken of an installation Hannes van Es made as part of his solo exhibition at Galerie van Gelder ‘Werken op papier: 1982 – 1987’. For the first time he used four Vanes acrylic paint cans as weights, placed at the corners of a paper floor work that he had covered with blobs of black Vanes paint. The latter was specifically made by a Spanish company for the purpose of his thick layered paintings.

After his works had been installed in GvG (notice the dusty knees of his trousers) on Saturday 10 June 1986 Hannes van Es requested me to take a picture of him under a sculpture named “Vehicle” (1986), made of iroko wood, ivory, gold, silver, resina and lava granite. A small sterling silver crown above the artist’s head was the basic idea of having this photo taken. KvG
