All auctions / Contemporary Art / Jan Sierhuis (1928-2023) - Gandango
Gandago – Jan Sierhuis Gandago by Jan Sierhuis is a good example of his expressive and energetic painting style. As with many of his paintings, it is less about a clear narrative and more about feeling, movement and color. After the war, Jan Sierhuis developed into an expressionist painter, influenced among others by Van Gogh, Matisse and Picasso. Together with Appel, Corneille and Lucebert he found himself at the heart of postwar developments in art. In 1945 Sierhuis was admitted to the evening program at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten, which he left after a conflict. In 1947 he was involved with the group of the Experimentalen and in 1948 with the CoBrA group, although he was too young to become an official member. Later he was, in 1962, co-founder of the Amsterdam-based artists' group Groep Scorpio. In the fifties and sixties Sierhuis primarily worked abstractly. Afterwards he returned to the human figure and shifted his attention to figurative themes such as dancing figures, portraits and landscapes. He spent many summers in Spain, where his passion for flamenco had a major influence on his work. This dance embodies everything that characterizes his painting: color, emotion, movement and rhythm. Sierhuis has always gone his own way. Freedom and expressiveness form the through line in his oeuvre. Dimensions of work without frame: 200 x 130 cm Viewing is, of course, possible.
