​
From the Jordan Art Gallery Site: "The recovery of beauty is of primary concern in Langbroek's art works. We encounter a vast amount of fragmentation and brokenness. Langbroek assembles objects, materials, paint, and images using aesthetic and cultural implications that can tell our story of suffering and joy, brokenness and wholeness, ugliness and beauty intertwined in a kind of reconciliation of an aesthetic of beauty. The nature of his art is never preachy or moralistic and it shies away from the didactic. Rather, his poetic nuanced, often narrative-based images reflect normative universality."
