Provenance: ABN AMRO Bank Art Collection. Jan Sierhuis Name: Jan Sierhuis Born: In Amsterdam on December 21, 1928 Jan Sierhuis was born in Amsterdam on December 21, 1928. As a result of his father dying prematurely (of tuberculosis) and his mother being ill (also of tuberculosis, only she survived) he spent part of his childhood in a children's home and with his grandmother. Early in his childhood, he hobbyed drawing and modeling. On the occasion of his 9th birthday he received a painting set and the seeds for his later career were sown. Nevertheless, after elementary school in 1943, he went to craft school to become a house painter instead of the expected art school to further develop his art painting. His mother saw no future for him as a painter. However, it was not a wasted investment because he gained a lot of material knowledge. After the art school he actually started working as a house painter for a short time, but soon he made the switch to being an artist. In 1945 he was admitted to the evening classes at the National Academy, which he left in 1948 after a conflict arose. Between 1953 and 1956, however, he would return and study there again. Jan Sierhuis Jan Sierhuis In 1957 he received an honorable mention as a result of his participation in the Prix de Rome and received a Royal grant to study in Antwerp. At that time he traveled extensively, together with his wife Tine, through France and Spain where he met Dalí and Tine was painted by Dali. In the years 1957 and 1958 he continued his education in Antwerp at the Academy of Fine Arts. Jan Sierhuis is a great painter. He is mentioned in the same breath as people like Appel and Corneille. In 1948 he was involved in the CoBrA group, but due to his young age he did not join them. Jan Sierhuis is mainly an expressionist painter and was inspired by artists such as Cézanne, Picasso, Matisse and van Gogh. In the 1950s and 1960s he painted mainly abstract works, which until the second half of the 1960s were characterized by expressionism. Then human figures dominated his works. He developed into a painter who mainly painted landscapes, portraits and dancing people. With this, slowly his connection with flamenco came into view. He had a summer house in Spain and stayed there regularly. It was also there that he was touched by flamenco and this influence is frequently seen in his works. The feeling that, for him in particular, the dance conveys inspired him to create large canvases that convey the flamenco feeling in romantic expressionism.

In 1948 he was involved in the CoBrA group, but due to his young age he did not join them. Jan Sierhuis is mainly an expressionist painter and was inspired by artists such as Cézanne, Picasso, Matisse and van Gogh. In the 1950s and 1960s he painted mainly abstract works, which until the second half of the 1960s were characterized by expressionism. Then human figures dominated his works. He developed into a painter who mainly painted landscapes, portraits and dancing people. With this, slowly his connection with flamenco came into view. He had a summer house in Spain and stayed there regularly. It was also there that he was touched by flamenco and this influence is frequently seen in his works. The feeling that, for him in particular, the dance conveys inspired him to create large canvases that convey the flamenco feeling in romantic expressionism. Jan Sierhuis has exhibited many times, both nationally and internationally (France, Mexico, Argentina, Switzerland, Dutch Antilles, Colombia, Ireland, United States, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, Germany, Poland and Japan). He also taught at Atelier '63 in Haarlem in 1968 and was associated with the Free Academy in The Hague as a tutor in the 1970s. He then became a teacher at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam in 1983 and at the Rijksacademie in 1984.
