- He drew his inspiration purely from nature, especially as a bird expert and as a "patron" of his feathered friends. He saved thousands of their nests, for example. But also as an "architect," he sought the abstract in harbor cranes, metro stations, and construction sites.
Joost Minnigh was an artist through and through, but he could just as easily have been a farmer, a beekeeper, a gardener, or simply a birdwatcher. And he pursued all these professions alongside his artistry with great passion.
Minnigh was born on May 29, 1942, in Pengalengan (Java) and spent his early years in a Japanese camp. A unique story. Shortly after the Second World War, he left for the Netherlands, where he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rotterdam between 1963 and 1967, supplemented with specialized lessons in etching from the renowned Bouke IJlstra and the equally renowned Daniel den Dikkenboer in color lithography. Soon after, he participated in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad.
