Oegstgeest , NetherlandsView all items from this sellerMaria (Rie) Gerarda Cornelia Knipscheer (Amsterdam, April 6, 1911 - Laren (N.H.), February 13, 2003) was a Dutch visual artist: painter, graphic artist, illustrator, draughtsman and designer of book bindings.
Life and work
Knipscheer was born in Amsterdam, the daughter of pharmacist Dr. Hermanus Marinus Knipscheer and Marie Görlach.
She trained as a physician's assistant, but was also encouraged by her parents to train as an artist.
She received her training at the graphics department of the Institute for Arts and Crafts Education in Amsterdam. Here she was taught by the graphic artist Jan Bertus Heukelom and the painter Gerard Westermann.
At the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam, she worked with Johannes Hendricus Jurres and Hendrik Jan Wolter. As a visual artist, she worked for a period of 75 years, from 1926 to 1991.
From 1933, she was a member of the Arti et Amicitiae artists' association in Amsterdam. She was also a member of the Amsterdam artist association Sint Lucas. Her first independent exhibition took place in The Hague in 1942.
She did not oppose her membership in the Nederlandsche Kultuurkamer, required by the German occupier, and was therefore able to continue exhibiting during World War II. Knipscheer was not only a painter and graphic artist, but also produced commissioned illustrations for various publishing houses, designed book bindings and was an advertising artist.
Rie Knipscheer married Jakob Rooker, born in 1908 in Hoogwoud, in Amsterdam on March 29, 1956.
