About the Item

Armando 18.09.1929 Amsterdam Zurück Giclee on heavy, hand-made cotton paper Year: 2016 Hand-signed and labelled Edition: e.a. Condition: In good condition Dimensions: 50.0 x 50.0 on 63.0 x 61.0 cm ARMANDO (Amsterdam 1929 - Potsdam 2018) Sculptor, Writer, Film and documentary maker, Violinist Education: Armando studied art history in Amsterdam for a number of years. He lived in Amstelveen and worked in Amsterdam. Armando (Amsterdam 1929) is one of the most important post-war Dutch artists and he is appreciated nationally and internationally. His work, based on his personal experience of the Second World War in Amersfoort, deals with existential and universal themes that he describes in terms of power and powerlessness, perpetrators and victims, memory, transience and melancholy. Fascination for violence and evil determines his work from the outset. Amazed by the treacherous beauty of this violence, Armando uniquely elaborates his theme in every discipline that he practices. Driven by the desire for insight into evil and for the mastery of the techniques to shape his theme, he explores the possibilities of every medium to the extreme. Armando's work comprises series of monumental paintings, pasty and worked through in black and white with here and there traces of color, subtle, poetic drawings and graphics. From 1989 onwards sculptures appear that seem to be shaped and bent by forces of nature. Armando's prose and poetry have their own place. In a very specific language, the unspeakable, surrounded by a lot of white, is expressed. Documentaries in which both perpetrators and victims have the floor, films, theater and theater performances complete an oeuvre of which both visual and literary work have been awarded several times. As a violinist of the Armando Quartet, Armando expresses the feeling of melancholy and melancholy that has a place in all his work, in music. Exhibitions and prices: 1984 - The Multatuli Prize for those in power, reports from Berlin and Tuscany. 1985 - The first Jacobus van Looy prize, a five-year oeuvre prize for double talents Armando Museum, Amersfoort Princessehof, Leeuwarden
