- Haarlem artist Wim Vellekoop (1936-2020) trained at the Amsterdam School of Applied Arts (the predecessor of the Rietveld Academy) under Professor Charles Roelofs, among others. Afterward, he taught drawing at the Bouman Academy in Amsterdam for over 35 years. Wim established his reputation in the 1970s with impressive, material paintings that were exhibited both within and outside the Haarlem region. The numerous reviews of his work over the years contain several key words, descriptions that repeatedly recur: dynamic, movement, rhythm, swing, expressionistic, powerful, tension, and abstract. His work can certainly be called abstract, and Wim doesn't give it titles. Because, as he explains, the viewer can let their imagination run wild! Wim calls himself a true abstract expressionist, consciously basing his work on the ideas of art historian Greenberg: abstract expressive visual language and emotionally charged paint handling. Emotion in color, as he describes his work.
