Also Great in the Small

In response to my question to Piet, to visualize 30 years of CIAP (1976-2006) in a porcelain badge, I received an original and artful answer. He symbolized the functioning of contemporary art in Limburg as an unstoppable movement, which, like a flowing matter, gradually solidifies into the intended result.

Previously, he designed the bronze medal on the occasion of the commemoration “150 years of separation/cooperation between the two Limburgs”. 

For the celebration of “20 years of the Meuse-Rhine Euregion” (1976-1996), he depicted both Limburgen, Liege and Aachen as one entity, a striking European region as a blue porcelain inlay, embedded in a white European context. 

I limit my commentary on the small scale in his oeuvre to these laying medals because they aptly model his vision of the renewal of an ancient commemorative object. Similarly, he has always added value to business gifts, book objects and other often enjoyable gadgets, among other things. In the totality of his visual work, from a broad mind and cross-border thinking, he has always shown an interest in the small-scale, in which form, functionality and content become one.
