AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In this work, Anton Heyboer uses red ink and stylized figures to depict human relationships and emotions. The simplified forms function as symbols within his personal visual language, in which life, connection, and inner tension are central. The red color intensifies the impact and refers to energy, love, and vulnerability. The work is not a realistic representation, but an inner schema of human existence.

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 work with frame: 102 x 132 cm
Dimensions of the work without a frame: 79 x 108 cm
