Artist Talk: Peter Van Dyck

Peter Van Dyck says he never really feels like he’s finished with a piece — but his luminous work nevertheless captures still moments of time in which you can feel the light and the space that surrounded him while painting. 

Van Dyck, who visits campus Friday, Oct. 25 as a guest of the Fine Art Department, says he approaches all his subjects the same way, whether they be landscape, still-life, or interior. And they often capture the interplay and blend any dividing line between “here” and “over there”, between interior and exterior, or the way objects relate to one another. 

Van Dyck’s Artist Talk will be delivered st 12:45 pm Oct. 25 in The LookOut, and the entire campus community is welcome to attend. You can see his work at petervandyckart.com.
