Ada Breedveld (1944) considers life as her school. She wanted to become an artist from a young age and did not attend an academy or course. Breedveld taught herself the trade and considers life as her school. From a young age she drew whenever she could, this has brought her a successful career. Working from her studio in Amsterdam, on Prinseneiland, she brings her art into the world. A colorful collection of artworks, including paintings, etchings and bronze sculptures. In the seventies, Ada Breedveld started exhibiting. Surrealism fascinated her, an art movement in which not visible reality, but fantasy from our deepest inner self should be the starting point for art. Along the way, she found her own characteristic style and theme: the imposing and present Woman. That woman, colorful, dancing, with a glass in her hand and birds around her in the air, is the ultimate bon vivant. This woman forms the central point in many of her works of art and it makes Breedveld's art very recognizable. Her works of art show something unreal, a dream, full of feeling and experience. She herself says: 'I have been painting all my life. The brush is an extension of my emotional life. With it, I can express myself in the most optimal way. The material gives me the challenge to create a world that creates the illusion of reality. A reality that does not really exist, but is experienced as such. As in a dream, the unreal is experienced as real. Edition may differ from photos
