Bart Hamelink, Help, an original acrylic painting (133 cm by 210 cm) in multicolour, created in 2025 in neo‑expressionist style with a pop culture theme, hand‑signed, sold directly by the artist, unframed and delivered with a certificate of authenticity.
AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Help is an expressive and playful work in which Bart Hamelink deliberately leaves space for the viewer. The text 'HELP' is not an explanation or judgment, but an invitation. What exactly is going on is up to each individual to decide. Is it a cry for attention, humor, chaos, or something very personal? There is no right or wrong answer.
The work is executed in acrylic and spray paint and fits within Hamelink's recognizable neo-expressionist style: raw lines, bright colors, and figures that balance between cartoon and emotion. The composition appears spontaneous and direct, yet remains accessible and powerful through its simplicity.
This artwork is delivered without a stretcher frame. This reduces transportation costs and decreases the risk of damage during shipping. The canvas can be stretched or framed by the buyer according to their preference.
A certificate of authenticity is provided with the work.
The displayed photos are atmospheric images and serve to illustrate how the work might look when it is stretched and hanging on the wall.

Seller's Story
Hamelink combines contemporary themes with influences from the past and often works in an energetic, expressive style. He draws inspiration from the tradition of artists such as Herman Brood, who was known for his raw, spontaneous approach, as well as Riek van Iersel, who sought a powerful emotional expression in his work.
Hamelink is best known for his paintings and drawings, in which he pushes the boundaries of traditional painting and tackles themes such as identity, culture and social issues. His work can be characterised by a direct, unpolished approach to the medium, which exudes a certain spontaneity and energy. Like Brood and Van Iersel, Hamelink plays with the tension between personal experience and the broader social context, often with a focus on contemporary society.
His style is often raw, unfiltered and full of expression, using powerful colours and dynamic shapes that enhance the urgency of his themes. Bart Hamelink seems to bridge the gap between traditional expressive movements and contemporary art with his work, while at the same time critically reflecting on modern times.
