AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Anton Heyboer’s Can-Can dancers are usually done with chalk or pastel on paper. He worked quickly and intuitively, with rough lines and strong colors, making movement and energy more important than detail. The technique suits the subject: freedom, rhythm, and physicality.

Anton Heyboer (1924–2005)
Because of his unconventional lifestyle, Anton Heyboer belonged to the most eccentric Dutch artists of the past decades. His turbulent lifestyle manifested itself in five marriages. He also described himself as 'the Robin Hood of the art world,' referring to his prolific output. Heyboer was trained as a mechanical engineer. After World War II he began drawing, albeit still in a traditional style. Between 1954 and 1957 he developed his own philosophical framework on which his abstract artworks were based. Yet there are always figurative elements present in his paintings and etchings. Additionally, Heyboer clarified the themes of his work with texts, in which human relationships often play a role.

Dimensions of the artwork with frame: 31 x 22 cm
Dimensions of the artwork without a frame: 29 x 20 cm
