Ada Breedveld is an Amsterdam artist with a strikingly unique style. Her studio is located on Bickerseiland in Amsterdam.
Ada Breedveld was born in Dordrecht at the beginning of the Dutch famine in 1944. Her parents, along with Ada's brothers, fled the devastation of Rotterdam. Like every post-war child, life was difficult and harsh. Fortunately, Ada finds great joy in drawing and painting. From kindergarten onward, she seizes every opportunity to experiment with color and line. No piece of paper is safe from the creative Ada.
After her studies, she started working, but none of her jobs gave her the joy and satisfaction she derives from drawing and painting. All her free time is therefore spent drawing and studying to further her skills. Ada experiments with colors, materials, and various themes. A magazine explaining the meaning of the word surrealism gives her work a direction toward "the so-called free world." The sometimes forced realism was replaced by imaginative, colorful, and above all, cheerful combinations.
Along with other artists with a passion for surrealism and magical realism, she travels throughout Europe to visit the major museums in Berlin, Paris, Madrid, and Barcelona. She also speaks with artists and explores new galleries. An explosion of drawings and colorful paintings follows, inspired by her many trips abroad and encounters with writers, poets, and visual artists. Ada is inspired and shaped by artists such as Marcel Duchamp, Paul Klee, Salvador Dalí, and Félecien Robs.
Her best-known works, in which Ada depicts voluptuous, vivacious women, originate from the comic series Sjaantje. Ada created this series for her mother, who suffered from her obesity during her life. Ada aims to relive her mother in her work and emphasize her beautiful and cheerful aspects. Her paintings are, as it were, a joyful renaissance of her mother. This has been a source of inspiration for Ada Breedveld for over 25 years.
Her cheerful depictions of women have become popular with a wide audience, not just in the Netherlands. Ada has exhibited extensively abroad, where she now has many admirers. Her work is sold in Germany, the United States, England, Spain, Switzerland, France, Sweden, Turkey, Greece, Poland, and Denmark.
