For John Konijn, painting is a way of keeping a grip on the confusing world we live in. Landscape is an important theme for him, both rural and urban. When he had a studio overlooking the river Eem, the painter made an entire series of the landscape he saw from his window. A painting from that series in now on display at the Mondrian House, along with several other works by his hand.
