Remko Leeuw (1974) his work shows a lot of variety caused by his method of painting. As Leeuw uses what comes on his path, the moments, the material and the people he meets, often take part or become part of his work. One time this leads to the forming of the BLIK-collective of action painting. Another moment this leads to a photo documentary of inaccessible demolishing premises in Berlin. In general Leeuw\'s work is colourful with strong contrasts, in which the viewer can sense the tension, emotion and fragility.

Leeuw studied at the Art Academy in Belgium. However, the traditional way of working at the academy appeared to leave little space for his self-taught ways of painting. Leeuw decides to stop at the academy to focus on his original and experimental ways of painting again. Artists that have been of great inspiration for him are Herbert Brandl, Mark Rothko, Jean-Paul Riopelle and Jackson Polllock.

In 2004 Leeuw meets painter Menno Dijkhuis and they start a frequent co-operation. They both translate their own colourful interpretation of reality to (often the same) canvas, in the so called \'after nature style\'. The work of Vicent van Gogh and Claude Monet are sources of inspiration to them. Subjectsof their work are still life, when nature is their studio, and (self-)portraits.

In 2006 Leeuw also meets Justus Donker and Jacob Kanbier. Collective work from Donker, Dijkhuis and Leeuw is created.

In summer 2008 Leeuw is one of the founders of the BLIK-collective for action painting. The members of the BLIK-collective are Leonie Maréchal, Bernadette van Loon en Remko Leeuw. By working same time on the same canvas, the three BLIK-members add a new dimension to action painting, in which they transform a huge amount of influences to the canvas in relatively short time. In one year BLIK creates a collection of about 30 action paintings. BLIK regularly performs at events and art festivals. Where Jackson Pollock stopped, BLIK continues..

Leeuw regularly exhibitis in The Netherlands, Belguim and Italy. On special request he also transforms impressions of music, surroundings or people, into a painting. At events he also guides groups and teams with making individual or group work, and action paintings.
