L'Hoëst, Engelbert (Dutch 1919-2008)

Polderlandschap 1956 gouache 55 x 35 cm ges. l.o. L'Hoëst was vooral colorist. Hij groeide op en woonde en werkte in en rond Amersfoort. Hij had grote bewondering voor de Cobra en de Vlaamse expressionisten. Museum Flehite in Amersfoort en Singer Laren organiseerden tentoonstellingen over zijn werk. Deze gouache doet denken aan de Friese expressionist Gerrit Benner. Onafhankelijk van elkaar ontwikkelden de twee kunstenaars een onafhankelijke stijl. L'Hoëst eerder dan Benner. In 1959 brandde zijn huis in Soesterberg af. De werken die opgeslagen stonden in het nabijgelegen schuurtje bleven bewaard w.o. deze gouache.

Engelbert L’Hoëst, Landschaft, Acrylgemälde

Engelbert L’Hoëst, Landschaft, Acrylgemälde Engelbert L’Hoëst, 1919 Amersfoort - 2008 Soesterberg, Landschaft, Acry/Papier, 60 x 40 cm, kaum sichtbar signiert links unten, Provenienz: Galerie van Almsick, unter P.p. Zum Künstler: Engelbert L’Hoëst war in den 1930-er Jahren Schüler des Alexander Cornelis Sleeswijk (1870 - 1945 ). In den 1940-er Jahren wurde er zunehmend von den Arbeiten der COBRA- Künstler Karel Appel und Corneille beeeinflusst, was 1948 zu ersten abstrakten Experimenten, kleinen Leinwänden mit oft kindlich bemalten Figuren und Tieren, führte. Ab 1954 wurde er völlig abstrakt und entwickelte in den Landschaften Frankreichs, Spaniens und Portugals in selbstgewählter Isolation einen kraftvollen und sehr persönlichen Expressionismus. Sein Hauptthema wie auch im vorliegenden Werk war dabei die Dramatik der Landschaft.

ENGELBERT L'HOËST (1919- 2008)

Sunset (1960) Signed and dated 60 lower right Oil on paper, 69.7 x 86.8 cm Provenance: Private collection, the Netherlands Note: Under the influence of modern painting, in particular the CoBrA movement, L’Hoëst produced colourful and expressive paintings after the war. Together with painters such as Gerard Grassère, Jan Stekelenburg and Douwe van der Zweep, he exhibited under the name ‘Progressives’ in 1954 in the Centraal Museum in Utrecht. He later exhibited at the Salon in Paris. Most of the years after World War II, L’Hoëst lived and worked in countries such as France, Spain and Portugal. In addition to his long sojourn abroad, his reclusive lifestyle and his introverted nature are the most important explanations for his relative unfamiliarity in the Netherlands. Many of his earlier works ended up with collectors all over the world, notably in Germany, America and China. After various exhibitions were held in the Netherlands, including a retrospective exhibition in 1989 at Singer Museum in Laren, the art of L’Hoëst also began to be collected in the Netherlands. * Please note: condition reports and additional photos are available upon request.
