Childcare (1991-2019) This large painting on linen is based on a drawing from 1991 and riffs on the white squares of minimalist painter Robert Ryman. It includes a yellow flower in the corner and is crowned with the word “CHiLDCARE”. “Childcare was totally unsexy, boring, frumpy and certainly not a subject at all present in the art world that I could see,” Van der Stokker says. “On the back of the drawing from 1991 I wrote: ‘Design for monochrome.’” From Interview Guardian with @skye Sherwin I can add that In 2019, 28 years after I made the design I decided to execute this workinto what I had fantasied about in the early nineties , an artpolitical work.
