AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This is an exceptional work by Anton Heyboer, as it is painted on slate – a special and less common support within his oeuvre. The choice of this material gives the work its own character and enhances its robust appearance. The painting aligns both in content and style with what we know of Heyboer, with his recognizable vocabulary of form and direct, expressive approach. It is precisely the combination of the atypical material and his familiar imagery that makes this work special.

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), as 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 on Curaçao. Then another stay in New York followed. 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 transported to a Durchgangslager for foreign forced laborers in Prenzlauer Berg (Berlin). He managed to escape and fled traumatized to the Netherlands, where he hid in Vinkeveen and performed farm labor.

Dimensions: 33 × 23 cm

Viewing is of course possible. In addition we have our own in-house framing workshop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary year. Furthermore we work with restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you wish to make use of this, of course we would be happy to hear from you."
