Information about the artist:
Evert Slegers, painter, watercolorist, draftsman, pen artist, wood engraver, linocutter, was born on September 7, 1948 in Helmond (North Brabant). His parents discovered his talent for drawing at an early age and had him take drawing lessons at a leisure course at the Bernadette parish. These lessons were provided by the Helmond artist Jac Poppeliers (1926-1992). At the age of fourteen, however, Slegers became a house painter, a profession he practiced until he was twenty-one. In the meantime he took painting lessons from the Brabant artist Henk Bies (Aarle Rixtel, 1928). He learned to draw from a model, to draw portraits and to work in perspective. Slegers wanted to attend the art academy, but did not have the right previous education. In that sense, Slegers is a true autodidact. His first exhibition took place in 1969 at antique dealer Manders in Mierlo-Hout. Slegers is known to many Helmonder for his paintings of clown figures and carnivalesque scenes. Yet he seems most in his element when he draws and paints subjects that are close to him: landscapes that exude a melancholy atmosphere. Slegers knows how to bring abandoned landscapes to life with a minimal use of color (gray tones, variations in white, blue and green). Canvases where the viewer can dream away and let his thoughts run free. It is striking that this emptiness and melancholy can already be found in a few canvases from 1968. Paintings that are painted with a quick, accurate touch: a coarse brushwork, dynamic touch and frequent use of the palette knife. Slegers himself says that in his work he is always looking for "atmosphere, silence and beauty". As a true artist from the Peel area, he feels related to twentieth century Belgian expressionist artists such as Constant Permeke and Gust de Smet. Evert Slegers made many trips at home and abroad. From 1971 he made study trips to Flanders, Siebengewald, Fontainebleau, Paris, Montpellier, Lugano, Tuscany and Spain. But he seems to draw most of his inspiration from the typical Peel landscape around Helmond and Deurne.
