Description from the seller
This is a large work by Anton Heyboer. It depicts a chicken, a common theme in Heyboer’s work.
Anton Heyboer (1924 – 2005) was a Dutch painter and etcher. He lived with four women in a commune in Den Ilp (Landsmeer). The 'fifth' woman was his art dealer across the street.
Heyboer was born in Sabang, on the Indonesian island of Pulau Weh (north of Sumatra), the son of a mechanical engineer. Five months after his birth the family moved to Haarlem, in 1925 to Delft, in 1929 to Voorburg and from 1933 to 1938 the family lived in Curaçao. Afterwards there was another stay in New York.
Heyboer was trained as a mechanical engineer.
Even before the outbreak of World War II the family returned to Haarlem. In 1943 Heyboer was arrested by the Germans as part of the Arbeitseinsatz and transferred to a transit camp for foreign forced laborers in Prenzlauer Berg (Berlin). He managed to escape and fled traumatized to the Netherlands, where he went into hiding in Vinkeveen and performed agricultural labor.
