Exhibition ‘Chris Berens, a modern Hieronymus Bosch’ in Oss
Parallel to the Jeroen Bosch exhibition in the Noordbrabants Museum, the fantasy world of Chris Berens was shown in the Museum Jan Cunen in Oss with an extensive exhibition titled ‘Chris Berens, a modern Hieronymus Bosch’.
The opening of this show, with more than fifty paintings and drawings by Berens, took place on Saturday, February 20, 2016.
During the opening, the artist was interviewed live by Antoinnette Scheulderman, journalist and side kick in the popular tv show ‘De Wereld Draait Door’. Scheulderman is a fan of his work.
Chris Berens was born in Oss. His unbridled imagination refers directly to the works of the medieval master Hieronymus Bosch. It is not without reason that American singer Blondie, for whom he designed the cover of her album ‘Panic of Girls’, describes him as the new Bosch. Like Bosch, Berens shows heaven and hell, angels and demons.
‘Chris Berens, a modern Hieronymus Bosch’ could be visited until June 26, 2016.
