Description from the seller

Early works by Jan Sierhuis

After the war, Jan Sierhuis developed into an expressionist painter, influenced by, among others, Van Gogh, Matisse and Picasso. Together with Appel, Corneille and Lucebert, he found himself at the heart of postwar developments in art.

In 1945 Sierhuis was admitted to the evening program at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten. In 1947 he was involved with the Experimentelen group and in 1948 with the CoBrA group, although he was too young to become an official member. Later, in 1962, he was co-founder of the Amsterdam-based artists’ group Groep Scorpio.

In the 1950s and 1960s Sierhuis mainly worked abstractly. Thereafter he returned to the human figure and shifted his focus to figurative themes such as dancing figures, portraits and landscapes. He spent many summers in Spain, where his passion for flamenco had a major influence on his work. This dance embodies everything that characterizes his painting: color, emotion, movement and rhythm.

Dimensions with frame: 78 x 83 cm
Dimensions without frame: 65 x 70 cm

Viewing is, of course, possible. We also have our own in-house framery, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. We also work with restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to use this service, please let us know."
