Coen Meulendijks was not only a painter but also a sculptor. He was educated at the Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam and the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague. He left the latter prematurely. His preference for an organic, expressive visual language did not correspond to the prevailing ideas at the time. He was inspired by his father's pre-Colombian and African art collection and work by artists such as Grünewald, El Greco, Ensor and especially Lucebert. Meulendijks painted directly on the canvas without any preliminary study. While painting, he continued until he felt he had achieved the right composition and expression. In his works, ordinary, everyday things are reshaped and arranged into a magical, surrealistic, sometimes oppressive, world. His sculptures also have an organic, expressive form language. They are cast in bronze or composed of different types of stone, such as freestone, marble and limestone.Light signs of use frame
