RUDI PILLS
Portrait of a man
MIXED TECHNOLOGY
Layered work executed in watercolor with details in ink and pastel.
Where watercolor and ink soak into the paper, pastel chalk remains on top.
Rare and unique work
Hand-signed by the artist.
Framed with a wooden frame, artwork is behind glass.
This work is packaged with extreme care and shipped with track and trace.
BIO The work of painter, draftsman, and sculptor Rudi Pillen was world-famous. His oeuvre spans a period of 50 years. His work evolved from expressionism to abstraction. The human being was central to his work.
Rudi Pillen had a heart for Africa and therefore decided to stay in Congo. His stay in Africa had a major impact on his work. This is visible, for example, in his use of color.
His most famous work can be seen in the Thailand Cultural Centre metro station in Bangkok: an enormous canvas measuring 2 by 10 meters, unveiled by Princess Astrid and Prince Lorenz of Belgium. Works by Rudi Pillen have been exhibited in major galleries in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Paris, Kinshasa, and Johannesburg , among others. In March 2016, there was another exhibition dedicated to Rudi Pillen in New Delhi.
