Although relatively unknown outside his native land during his brief life span, today Johannes Duiker is recognized as among the foremost representatives of the Nieuwe Bouwen, the Dutch version of functionalism, or neue Sachlichkeit (New Objectivity). The buildings of his maturity, composed of crystalline volumes of great purity, executed without superfluous details, rationally fulfill function while expressing modernity in all its spare beauty. The exciting possibilities of 20th-century technique are transformed into radiant forms that engage the mind and lift the spirit.
