About this artwork
In “Ex luce ad tenebras,” I approach the Hermann Monument from an anti-heroic perspective. The back of the monumental hero fills the lower part of the picture plane; his raised sword points not toward a radiant dawn, but toward a pitch-black sky in which a few stars twinkle cunningly. The night robs the national hero of his pose, transforming him into an illuminated figure before an overwhelming void. In the context of the “Nocturnes” series, I am…
interested in darkness as a space in its own right: it consumes details, dampens pathos, and opens a projection space for memory, doubt, and diffuse anxieties. The artificially lit Arminius thus appears less victorious than vulnerable—like a stage character who has lost his lines. “Per aspera ad astra” becomes “ex luce ad tenebras”: a fall from heroic light into an uncertain night.

Marcel van Beek works with photography, painting, and graphic design, drawing on his artistic background from his studies at the Alanus University of Art and Social Sciences. His technique combines pictorialist influences with romantic-symbolist imagery. His photographs embody contemporary fine art photography and conceptual photography, often featuring monochrome recolors in tertiary colors.
He creates a poetic visual language interested in forms and structures, combining this with a modern, conceptual approach that claims social relevance. In his works, he explores inner and outer landscapes, conveying feelings of longing and threat, as well as a fascination with the hidden. He has published various art publications (most recently "World of Water," 2025), which are represented internationally in academy and museum libraries (including Vienna, Basel, Düsseldorf, and Berlin).
