Anton Heyboer — Kip, red watercolour in Expressionism, original edition, hand-signed, 1980–1990 period, framed, 53 × 43 cm (frame size; artwork 37 × 31 cm), Netherlands, sold by Galerie.
Description from the seller
Due to his unorthodox way of life, Anton Heyboer was among the most eccentric Dutch artists of the past decades. His turbulent lifestyle manifested in five marriages. He also described himself as 'the Robin Hood of the art world', referring to his prolific output of art. Heyboer was trained as a mechanical engineer. After World War II he began drawing, albeit still in a traditional style. Between 1954 and 1957 he developed his own philosophical framework based on which his abstract artworks were created. Yet, figurative elements always remain in his paintings and etchings. He also clarified the themes of his work with texts, in which human relationships often play a role.
Dimensions: 37 x 31 cm
Dimensions with frame: 53 x 43 cm
Provenance: Purchased at the Anton Heyboer studio
Viewing is of course possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framing department, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. We also work with restorers from the professional organization: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, please let us know."
