AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
In this work, Hamelink presents three figures standing close together, each with their own presence, but clearly connected. The powerful yellow background conveys energy and optimism, while the black suits lend a sense of calm and balance.
The figures each look slightly different, referring to differences in character, tempo, and perspective. Yet they form one whole together. The work is about being connected without losing yourself — about standing together, despite differences.
The recognizable visual language, the strong use of color, and the apparent simplicity make this painting immediately legible and powerful on the wall, fitting for both modern and industrial interiors.
This work is part of Hamelink's ongoing series in which humanity, humor, and vulnerability come together in a distinctive, recognizable style.
Delivered without a steel frame due to high transport costs and less chance of damage., carefully packed,
including a certificate of authenticity.
Photos are mood photos for when you want to hang them on the wall in a frame.

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.
