Description from the seller
Jan Cremer – Tuscany
Limited edition linocut in a limited and signed edition. In this work, Jan Cremer portrays the Tuscan landscape with bold, expressive lines and a strong sense of rhythm and light. The composition breathes the Mediterranean atmosphere that is so characteristic of his Italian period.
A characteristic graphic work in which nature, energy and craft come together.
Jan Cremer, writer and artist, was born in 1940 in Enschede. His father died in 1942, leaving his upbringing entirely to his mother. Jan's mother, Rosza Csordás Szomorkay, was Hungarian and studied at the conservatory in Budapest. After the war, Jan Cremer was placed in foster homes and colony houses by child protection services. In the fifties he held various jobs, served with the marines, and for a time worked as a sailor on the open seas. In 1958 he took a few months of training at the art academy in Arnhem and The Hague. Cremer lived on Ibiza for a while and left for New York in 1964. Afterwards he lived alternately in America and Europe. As a writer, Cremer suddenly became famous with “I, Jan Cremer” (1964). It is a picaresque novel with sex, violence and adventure. As a result, the literary quality of his authorship was not regarded very highly by everyone. The novel was kept out of libraries for a long time. “I, Jan Cremer” appeared in many languages. In addition to novels, Jan Cremer wrote travel reports and plays. Cremer’s art consists of paintings, graphics and gouaches and often depicts Dutch and also Italian landscapes in bright colors.
