Notes

Still life with game, painted from life, gives the seventeenth century Dutch still life tradition a modern interpretation. "In the work of Mulders, as it takes shape between the late 1980s and into the twenty-first century, two motifs continue to surface with great frequency: dead animals and flowers. The animals—rabbits, geese, pheasants, deer, wild boar and fish —appear in various stages of decay (...) Initially these creatures are depicted in the paintings with their skins and feathers, then half-skinned or plucked, and finally forced open to the extent that their innards are revealed in all their carnal glory, dripping with blood and pus. (...) Mulders mitigates the possible preconception that he would have a one-track and exclusive fixation on death and decay. His cyclical approach to the motifs, keeping pace with the passing of seasons, shows the contrary: that the full circle of growth and decay is the major theme with Mulders." (from the artist's website)
