Paul Permeke ( 1918 - 1990 ) - Expressionistisch landschap.

Photos form part of the description. One of the nicer paintings by Paul Permeke.

Permeke, Paul - Sidford (GB) 1918-1990 West-Kapelle
Painter, draftsman, self-taught. Youngest son of Constant Permeke. At the age of 16 he moved to Lausanne due to a disagreement with his father about his artistic training. Back in Belgium he lived for a few years with L. Peire and R. Slabbinck in the painters’ community “Het luizengevecht” in Dudzele. From 1937 he painted scenes in rural villages, caravans, farm dances, fairground scenes and blended in elements of Impressionism and Expressionism. From 1960, based in West-Kapelle, he drew his inspiration mainly from the polder region and the moving skies, but he remained faithful to all other motifs close to his heart, such as the ordinary person and the farmer. Works, among others, in museums in Antwerp and Ostend.
