mixee media painting on paper by Outsider Dutch artist Jaco Kranendonk

This is a one-of-a-kind mixed media painting on paper by contemporary Dutch artist Jaco Kranendonk. Titled “Switzerland,” the medium-sized piece measures 19.5 inches in height and 25.5 inches in width. It features a cityscape subject and falls under the style of Outsider Expressionism. Produced in 1999, the painting is signed by the artist and is unframed. It is a handmade original and is sold as a single piece. Jaco Kranendonk was born in 1951 and raised in Rotterdam, and has always been fascinated with ships and transportation. Ill as a child, he suffered undiagnosed mental illness and could not hold a job. After becoming medicated in the early ’70’s, he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital for three years. In 1991, Kranendonk was one of the first artists to attend the Atelier Herenplaats, where once drawing and painting, his illness subsided and he has been obsessively painting ever since. His paintings are populated with a continual stream of cars, buses, trams and metros which worm their way under and above the city’s buildings. The metropolis of Rotterdam offers a gigantic wealth of images which Jaco has stored in his memory. The city in the past and the present merge with each other. The dynamics in his work are vast. Kranendonk has been exhibited extensively since 1998. His work can be found in these collections: Museum de Stadshof, Zwolle (till 2001), Museé d’Art Différencié, Liège, Belgium, Neuve Invention Collection de L’Art Brut, Lausanne, Switzerland, Charlotte Zander, Bönnigheim, Germany and Max E. Ammann Collection, Switzerland.

Georges Andre Klein (French 1901-1992) Portuguese Village with Church O/C Signed

100% Authentic guaranteed!Georges Andre Klein (French, 1901-1992) Portuguese Village with Church Oil on Canvas Signed Lower RightFull-fledged traveling painter, Georges André Klein gives us the shock of successive emotions. Portraits of desert women, traditions from the depths of the Maghreb, Taroudant, Boussaâda, so many faces loaded with gravity in a decor of wrought ironwork, ornate fabrics, mosaics and jewelry.Painting for him has always been a deep commitment, mixing drama and joy, the drama of confessing completely in a work without ulterior motives, without granting the slightest concession to the taste of the moment, without giving way a little to fashion.“Having received the North Africa Prize in 1939, G.A. Klein stayed in Algeria during the war years, in particular in Oran, where he exhibited often, and in southern Algeria at Ghardaïa. “*Returning to France in 1945, he left for Morocco again in 1952 then stayed in Italy and Spain with Caillard. In 1958, he made his second trip to Madagascar where he met his wife Victoire in Amboasary. *Extract from “The Algeria of Painters” by Marion Vidal-Bué Any questions contact us!
