AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

"Green Connection" is a powerful and fresh work by Hamelink, executed on an intense bright green background that immediately radiates energy, growth, and vitality. Green in this work symbolizes life, hope, and movement — and creates a strong contrast with the black figures in the foreground.

On the canvas, we see three figures side by side: two human-like figures and one animal-like form. Their large eyes, simple shapes, and raw lines give the work a playful yet slightly disconcerting appearance. The figures seem connected, yet each retains their own identity — a recurring theme in Hamelink's work.

The combination of the powerful green with the black-and-white figures creates a strong visual tension. The painting is both accessible and layered: it invites a smile, but at the same time raises questions about connectedness, being different, and togetherness.

This work fits perfectly within Contemporary Neo-Expressionism and is a real eye-catcher for a modern interior, office, or gallery.

Important information for buyers

The photos are atmospheric images to show what the work looks like when it is stretched.

The canvas is shipped without a stretcher frame, carefully rolled in a sturdy tube (lower shipping costs and less chance of damage).

Easy to re-stretch after receipt at any frame maker.

Comes with a certificate of authenticity.

Seller's Story

Hamelink combines contemporary themes with influences from the past and often works in an energetic, expressive style. He draws inspiration from the tradition of artists such as Herman Brood, who was known for his raw, spontaneous approach, as well as Riek van Iersel, who sought a powerful emotional expression in his work. Hamelink is best known for his paintings and drawings, in which he pushes the boundaries of traditional painting and tackles themes such as identity, culture and social issues. His work can be characterised by a direct, unpolished approach to the medium, which exudes a certain spontaneity and energy. Like Brood and Van Iersel, Hamelink plays with the tension between personal experience and the broader social context, often with a focus on contemporary society. His style is often raw, unfiltered and full of expression, using powerful colours and dynamic shapes that enhance the urgency of his themes. Bart Hamelink seems to bridge the gap between traditional expressive movements and contemporary art with his work, while at the same time critically reflecting on modern times.
