Johannes Boekhoudt

New Collection Now on Display in Dallas

Markowicz Fine Art is excited to represent Johannes Boekhoudt. The Dutch painter is known as the artist of crosses, working in many formats, especially large oil on linen and canvas. An inventive creator, he also constructs elemental sculptures from reclaimed materials such as wood and old clocks. Since the beginning of his career, the core themes of his works have revolved around human rights and social justice. Boekhoudt addresses atrocities such as child abuse, domestic violence, and organ trafficking, as well as social injustices arising due to worldwide political instability. His work is included in several esteemed public and private collections nationally and internationally. Johannes Boekhoudt’s new collection is now on display in our Dallas gallery.
