AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Jan Cremer – Tuscany
Etching and screen print in a limited and signed edition. In this work Jan Cremer depicts the Tuscan landscape with strong, expressive lines and a strong sense of rhythm and light. The composition breathes the Mediterranean atmosphere that is so characteristic of his Italian period.

A characteristic graphic work in which nature, energy and craft come together.
Jan Cremer, writer and artist, was born in 1940 in Enschede. His father died in 1942, resulting in Jan being raised entirely by his mother. Jan's mother, Rosza Csordás Szomorkay, was Hungarian and studied at the conservatory in Budapest. After the war, Jan Cremer was placed in foster homes and colony houses by child protection services. In the fifties he held various jobs, served with the marines, and for some time worked as a sailor on the wild voyage. In 1958 he attended a few months of training at the art academy in Arnhem and The Hague. Cremer lived for a while on Ibiza and left in 1964 for New York. Thereafter he alternated living in America and Europe. As a writer, Cremer became instantly famous with "I, Jan Cremer" (1964). It is a picaresque novel with sex, violence and adventure. Because of this, the literary merit of his authorship was not regarded as very high by everyone. The novel remained out of libraries for a long time. "I, Jan Cremer" appeared in many languages. Besides novels, Jan Cremer wrote travelogues and plays. The art of Jan Cremer consists of paintings, graphics and gouaches and often depicts Dutch, and also Italian, landscapes in vivid colors.
