Marlies Vonks’ fascination
with movement and “the
theatrical” is clearly shown in her
Caribbean Carnival series from 1988 until 1992. She
studied the folklore and observed numerous Carnival Parades on the
Dutch Antilles and New Orleans.
For that reason she and her partner/manager Ton Van Loenen lived and
worked on Aruba and Curacao for almost two years. This resulted in an
impressive number of solo-exhibitions
in Europe – U.S.A. and the Dutch Antilles.
She also gave several Art-Workshops on Curacao.
And last but not least; C& A Computers gave Marlies a commission
for a monumental 6 tych for
their new office in Nieuwegein - The
Netherlands
