Kopper maandag Prent
ASSIGNED ARTWORK
Concept
The Kopper Maandag Prent of 2014 is published under the title Falsafa and derives from a fascination for the homonymous Arabic philosophy. Within this movement, geometry is used to understand the world and to aspire perfection. The regulation of patterns and their origin are seen as the ultimate beauty, stimulating the intellect to the extreme.
What is Kopper MAandag Prent?
The Kopper Maandag Prent is a special edition of the Graphic Workshop Alkmaar. The origin of this print goes back to the Dark Ages and is seen as an aptitude. The artwork is presented on the first Monday after Epiphany (also known as Kopper Maandag). Since 2011 this tradition is brought back to life by the Graphic Workshop Alkmaar.
