Bram
Utrecht, Netherlands
Product description
This poster is from a major retrospective at the Bonnefantenmuseum in 1989. It is an offset lithograph and printed on very sturdy paper. It has never been hung and kept dark. It is therefore like new and is shipped very carefully packaged. Bram van Velde was born in Zoeterwoude-Rijndijk in 1895. After his elementary school days, Van Velde went to work in the business of a house painter. He developed from house painter and decorator to painter of art. He settled in Worpswede, Germany, in 1922 and then, beginning in 1925, worked in Paris. In the 1930s he got to know the Irish writer Samuel Beckett, who published about both artists. This contact, which intensified after World War II, generated interest in their work and they were invited to exhibitions, first in Paris and later in New York and elsewhere. Works by Van Velde can be found in museum collections in England, France, the Netherlands, the United States and Switzerland. Van Velde died in 1981 at the age of 86 in Grimaud, France.
