Description from the seller
This special oil painting is painted on both sides and signed and dated 1975 in the lower left corner.
The work was created by the German artist Hans Sünderhauf (1929-2009), painter, graphic artist and sculptor, who is regarded as one of the leading figures in the Kreuzberg bohemian art scene of Berlin. Together with artist Kurt Mühlenhaupt, he was part of the artists' group Berliner Malerpoeten.
After studying painting at the Hochschule für bildende Künste in Berlin, Sünderhauf worked from his Kreuzberg studio until 2005. His extensive oeuvre includes, in addition to sculptures, etchings, woodcuts, lithographs, drawings, watercolors, oil- and acrylic paintings. His work was exhibited in numerous exhibitions at home and abroad. Although his life from 1964 was affected by a manic-depressive disorder and several hospitalizations, he remained exceptionally productive.
Dimensions: 137 x 73 cm
Viewing is of course possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framers workshop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. We also make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, of course we would be pleased to hear from you.
