Documentations taken at the opening of Roberto Chabet's solo exhibition, 'Dutch and Other Paintings', at West Gallery in 1989.

'Dutch and Other Paintings' features four works: a painting based on an enlarged detail of Piet Mondrian's painting, onto which are attached four panels in red, blue, yellow, and white that open like a Dutch window; an all-black painting with the word 'Photo' written in chalk; a white painting with the map of the Himalayas and a bell; and another black painting wrapped in raw plywood with a plaster cast bone.

It is the first in a trilogy of exhibitions that re-visit and take an 'end-of-the-century glance' at the works of Dutch artists such as Piet Mondrian, De Stijl and other vanguard painters of the early 20th century. Subsequent installations, 'Other Dutch Paintings/Still Other Dutch Paintings' (1995) and 'Dutch Paintings' (2006) complete the trilogy of works that explores 'the measure and metaphor of distance and otherness caught in the vagaries of geography, time, memory, history, and culture.'
