AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Gandago – Jan Sierhuis

The work Gandago by Jan Sierhuis is a good example of his expressive and energetic painting style. As with many of his paintings, it is less about a clear story and more about feeling, movement and color.

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 in the heart of post-war developments in art.

In 1945 Sierhuis was admitted to the evening program of the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten, which he left after a conflict. 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 he was in 1962 co-founder of the Amsterdam artists' group Groep Scorpio.

In the 1950s and sixties Sierhuis mainly worked abstractly. Afterwards he returned to the human figure and shifted his attention 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 are the common thread in his oeuvre.
