Description from the seller

Anton Heyboer's Can-Can dancers are usually made with chalk or pastel on paper. He worked quickly and intuitively, with rough lines and strong colors, making movement and energy more important than detail. The technique fits the subject: freedom, rhythm, and physicality.

Anton Heyboer (1924-2005)
Because of his unusual way of life, Anton Heyboer belonged to the most eccentric Dutch artists of the past decades. His turbulent lifestyle was reflected in a number of five marriages. He also described himself as 'the Robin Hood of the art world,' referring to his high artistic productivity. Heyboer 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 the basis of which his abstract artworks arose. Yet figurative elements always remain present in his paintings and etchings. Heyboer also clarified the themes of his work with texts, in which human relationships often play a role.

Framed dimensions: 31 x 22 cm
Unframed dimensions: 29 x 20 cm
