All auctions / Contemporary Art / Hamelink - Red Polar Bear
This original work by Bart Hamelink, titled Red Polar Bear, shows a polar bear reduced to a powerful, simple form. The bear is deliberately painted in vivid red: a color that here not only stands out, but also symbolizes warning and danger. The polar bear is an animal whose habitat is under pressure due to climate change. By depicting it not white, but red, the work gains an extra meaning: red as an alarm signal for an animal and a habitat that are threatened. The minimalist form, the small eye, and the large red color fields make the image direct and recognizable. Typical of Hamelink: simple in shape, but with a clear idea behind it. Red Polar Bear is executed in acrylic on canvas, is a unique original, signed by the artist and comes with a certificate of authenticity. Note: the interior photos are mood images and serve solely as impression. Because of the size, the canvas is carefully rolled up and safely packed in a sturdy square shipping tube. The work is delivered without the shown frame and without a stretcher frame.
