About the artist:
Sidford (GB) 1918 – West-Kapelle 1990. Painter, draftsman, self-taught. Youngest son of Constant Permeke. Moved to Lausanne at the age of 16 due to a disagreement with his father about his art education. Back in Belgium, he lived for a few years with L. Peire and R. Slabbinck in the "Het Luizengevecht" (The Lice Fight) painting community in Dudzele. He was interned as a British citizen during World War II. From 1937 onwards, he painted scenes in farming villages, caravans, country balls, and fairground scenes, combining elements of Impressionism and Expressionism. A brief period of surreal scenes is reminiscent of Ensor and Chagall. The Buffet-style miserabilism of 1946-1947 has little significance in his oeuvre. After a stay in Spain and Portugal (1953-1954) and the south of France (1955), his palette became lighter and sunnier. From 1960 onward, settled in West-Kapelle, he found his inspiration primarily in the polder region and the turbulent skies, but he also remained true to all other motifs close to his heart, such as the ordinary person, the wanderer, the fisherman, the farmer. His work is exhibited in museums in Antwerp and Ostend, among others.
