AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

After the war, Jan Sierhuis developed into an expressionist painter, influenced among others by Van Gogh, Matisse, and Picasso. Together with Appel, Corneille and Lucebert he found himself at the heart of post-war developments in the arts.

In 1945 Sierhuis was admitted to the evening program of the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten. In 1947 he was involved with the group of the Experimenters and in 1948 with the CoBrA group, although he was too young to become an official member. Later, in 1962, he co-founded the Amsterdam artists’ group Groep Scorpio.

In the fifties and sixties Sierhuis predominantly worked abstractly. Thereafter he returned to the human figure and shifted his focus to figurative themes such as dancing figures, portraits and landscapes. He spent many summers in Spain, where his passion for flamenco had a great influence on his work. This dance embodies everything that characterizes his painting: color, emotion, movement and rhythm.

Sierhuis has always gone his own way. Freedom and expressiveness form the through-line of his oeuvre.

Size of the work with frame: 44 x 34
Dimensions of the work without frame: 40 x 30 cm

Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition we have our own in-house framers, who are celebrating their 85th anniversary year. We also make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to use this service, please let us know.
