Description from the seller
Anton Heyboer – Vinkevener
The word Vinkevener refers to Vinkeveen, the place where Anton Heyboer lived and worked for a long time. Heyboer felt a strong connection to this environment and saw his life there as part of his art. In his work this is reflected in personal, direct and often symbolic images that refer to his own world. Vinkevener shows how Heyboer made his identity and living environment a subject, thereby developing a unique, idiosyncratic artistic language.
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 without a frame: 80 x 110 cm
Viewing is, of course, possible. Additionally, we have our own in-house framing workshop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore, we collaborate with restorers from the professional organization: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you wish to make use of this service, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
