Anton Rooskens: beyond = voorbij Cobra

Uittreksel

"Anton Rooskens (1906-1976) made a significant contribution to modern art in the Netherlands as an artist affiliated with the Cobra group, but also afterwards. His paintings are included in leading museum collections in the Netherlands and abroad. It is time for a new, comprehensive publication on this important Dutch twentieth-century painter. Over the past years, art historians Marguerite Tuijn and Eliane Odding have delved into his oeuvre and life. Based on previously unused sources from Rooskens' personal archive - photographs, letters, articles and his artistic oeuvre - they wrote the monograph Anton Rooskens. Beyond Cobra. In doing so, they worked closely with Rooskens' family and an advisory group of Cobra experts. This publication provides a broad insight into the artist's work and life and contains more than a hundred illustrations of paintings and other works. Exhibition: Stedelijk Museum Schiedam, The Netherlands (28.01. - 25.06.2023)."-- Provided by publishers
