Helène Oosthoek-Zoetmulder in an interior, 1960
Photographer: W.P.W. van de Hoef, 1960
Format: Square print, white border
Condition: Excellent, archival quality
The Netherlands, 1960. Helène Oosthoek-Zoetmulder (1918-2002), actress and performance artist, captured in a carefully furnished interior — a low wall unit, wrought-iron details, and art objects that breathe the taste of the early sixties. Van de Hoef photographs her not on stage, but amidst her own surroundings: a portrait that tells as much about the woman as about the spirit of the times. A rare document of an artist whose name is now less well known, but whose presence still convinces.
