AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

You see four figures side by side. They stand close to each other, but each has its own color, shape and energy. They seem like a group, but yet everyone is different. That makes it recognizable. Everyone wants to belong somewhere, but also to stay true to themselves.

The vivid colors and coarse lines give the work a playful and raw appearance. It is direct, accessible, and sticks with you. The eyes immediately draw attention and create a connection with the viewer.

The painting has a positive energy, but also a deeper layer. It’s about friendship, identity, and finding your place. About how we are strong together, despite our differences.

Due to its large size, this is a real eye-catcher in a modern, industrial, or creative interior. It brings color and character to a room without becoming loud.

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.
