40 years ago herman de vries visited the greek island of gavdos, south of crete. at the time, the island had no regular boat service and was scarcely visited. the inhabitants - 80 then - still used donkeys for transportation.
herman always had wanted to return to this paradise to him and finally he did in 2016. the result of this visit is a beautiful body of work, shown for the first time and consisting of a 73 part ‘journal’, stone works, as well as a series of 15 earth rubbings a.o.
also his son vince de vries shot a poetic documentary on the occasion.
