Description from the seller
Beautiful original work by Henri Plaat. Mixed media on paper and framed. Signed bottom right,
Henri Plaat (1936–2020) was a Dutch visual artist, filmmaker and photographer. He was born in The Hague and studied at the Royal Academy of Art and Design (KABK). Plaat worked across disciplines and became best known for his experimental films, collages, drawings and photographic works.
His work is characterized by a poetic, often theatrical visual language in which themes such as identity, alienation, melancholia and transience are central. In his films he combined performance, costumes and mise-en-scène into estranging, sometimes grotesque tableaux. In addition he made collages and photographic works in which historical images, art quotations and personal symbolism come together.
Plaat exhibited internationally and his work is included in collections of, among others, museums in the Netherlands. He is regarded as an important figure within Dutch experimental art and cinema of the second half of the 20th century.
