Pim Piët, Consider white; Boekhorststraat 12, The Hague

A very long time ago a teacher told me that everywhere where you paint white, you don’t paint colour.

As those were the days that teachers were always right, he was probably right.

He also taught me that you don’t paint light with white, as white paint is white, not light.

If you need a light in your room, you switch on the light instead of painting your room white.

White is not a colour, it’s just a pigment, that’s right.

However, if you think you are completely blank on that, you’re totally wrong.

You’d be well advised to consider white.

Which you can still do over the next three days (23-24-25 February) at Consider white by Pim Piët (1954), currently exhibiting as a guest in Gallery Nono’s space in the Boekhorststraat, The Hague.
