About the artist: Born in 1940, Paul Henri de Lussanet de la Sablonière, as he is called in full, received his first painting lessons from his grandparents, artists in the artists' village of Laren. He received further training at the Higher Institute for Fine Arts in Antwerp and the Schule des Sehens of Oskar Kokoschka in Salzburg. He spent three summers there. Eventually, he left – like many artists before him – for the art mecca of Paris, where he would live and work for ten years.
As dignified and classic as his full name sounds, his work looks wild and modern. De Lussanet creates colourful, dynamic expressionist compositions that at first glance seem to have been conjured up on canvas in a flash. The loose way of painting makes the images full of life. Even when it comes to portraits. De Lussanet, one of the last bohemian painters from Laren, has been creating an expressive, poetic and colourful universe for 50 years. The female nude is a recurring theme in his oeuvre.
