Born in 1937 in the Netherlands, Auke de Vries was trained at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague. He first worked as a painter and graphic artist. In 1959 he was awarded the Royal Grant for the Art of Painting. However, he became known mostly for his work as a sculptor. He started creating metal sculptures in the 1970s. His sculptures are light, abstract constructions composed of geometric shapes that appear to float in air: lines, cones, cubes, cylinders and planes.
This photobook, which has an original oblong format, consists in a collection of pictures taken by Auke de Vries as preparatory works for his sculptures, taken between 1971 and 1975.
The book was published on the occasion of the award of the Ouborg oeuvre prize to Auke de Vries, December 1997.
