Kralendijk, Bonaire -– Known for his colorful murals that beautifully compliment the Dutch Caribbean island of Bonaire, artist Henk Roozendaal is currently exhibiting his art at the Broadway Gallery in New York City.
The exhibition titled “Hotel” features the work of various international artists whose art represent interpretations of the concept of a hotel, for example, as a temporary residence or an area of rest for travelers. The exhibition opened at the Broadway Gallery (located at 473 Broadway, 7th Floor, New York) on November 16 and runs through this Friday, November 30.
Henk Roozendaal’s painting “Zen & The Art of Snorkeling” represents the active Bonairean traveler in a spiritual state of mind while snorkeling. As the only exhibit from the Caribbean, the painting adds balance to the other works of art featured with its ‘stylized realism’ which is created by Roozendaal’s skilled ability to paint flat with a 3-dimensional result.
Henk Roozendaal relocated from the Netherlands to Bonaire in 1999 with his wife Herma and son Boy. Together with author Guus Gerritssen from the Netherlands (who relocated to Bonaire in 1998 with his wife Nita), Henk has produced two editions of the book “Portraits of Bonaire,” which features Roozendaal’s painted portraits and Gerritssen’s written portraits of predominant Bonairean residents.

Located eighty-six miles east of Aruba, the Dutch Caribbean island of Bonaire offers year-round sunshine, low annual rainfall, pristine coral formations and the most thriving fish population in the Caribbean.

And with a selection of accommodations ranging from full-service oceanfront resorts and condominiums to guesthouses and small inns, Bonaire has something for every lifestyle and budget.
