About The Artwork

The Great Moon Hoax of 1835, published by the New York Sun paper, was recognized as the first fake news in the media. No need to expand on the exponential growth of fake news, especially in the U.S. AI/ChatGPT will bring it to the next level. What is driving social groups to look for answers elsewhere? This behavior is as old as mankind, addressing deep fears, f.e. going back to the middle ages, burning of witches, the plague, death. Closer to home is the Berlin wall, the ultimate proof of separation, totalitarian fake news. In childhood there is just purity, no need for language. The key of the painting is the famous children’s book story of “Jip and Janneke” starts when they meet for the first time by crawling through the hedges of the garden, here the Berlin wall. They just look at each other and are friends…forever. Hope. Fake news.

Richard Lake is Dutch artist, living in Eindhoven. Based on a deep interest in philosophy and humanism, he creates work to reflect on mankind. His active painting life started in 2020. Inspiration is found in nature, music and all the great art of the past. …We don’t know where we came from or - where we are going. Mankind has the brains to find out, but can’t. Art celebrates that uncertainty. Ecce Homo; why do love, hate, live, die…
