Frieling is inspired by different sources, among them folk art and Christian iconography. He tries to combine the things he loves into a grand unity and this evokes a feeling of inexhaustibility. As Frieling explains: 'My work is an attempt to present the development of painting as an entity in which the differences between fine art, folk art, religious painting, 'high art' and the avant-garde are merely contextual. Painting is visual knowledge, and at the same time an accumulation of actions. I want to give these reflective and performative aspects an equal place.' \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eVernacular Painting\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e presents large mural paintings from the last fifteen years by Gijs Frieling (Amsterdam, 1966), together with a number of small paintings, pieces of embroidery and objects.
