Biography:
Belgian painter born in Germany (Gladberg) in 1926, trained at the Academy of Dusseldorf, he moved to Belgium in La Louvière in 1948.
He began his career with Surrealism and then Lyrical Abstraction when he arrived in Belgium, before moving on to Hyperrealism (Figurative). Later, influenced by Pop Art and photography, he painted blurred nude female bodies, as if a camera had shaken during the shot. The theme of the naked woman is almost omnipresent in his provocative and sensual work, magnified by delicate chiaroscuro effects.
In La Presse: "Her works, with their dreamlike realism, are architecturally constructed. Her compositions are underpinned by curves that celebrate feminine grace in a sumptuous setting. Her colours create astonishing contrasts with the pearly, bronzed, lascivious flesh of her models"...
