Ans Wortel, (Alkmaar, 1929 - Hilvarenbeek, 1996) lived in Bergen (NH) since 1969. She was self-taught and exhibited regularly from 1960 onwards.
Her work consists of drawings, collages, etchings, gouaches and paintings, but mainly mixed media.
In 1963 she won the 1st prize – a scholarship – at the Biennale de la Jeunesse in Paris.
Ans Wortel has occupied a completely unique place in post-war painting since the sixties. Her work is strongly autobiographical. Her – often intense – life experiences as a woman, mother and artist formed an inexhaustible source of inspiration.
Her depictions consist of human figures, seeking each other, embracing or repelling each other. Eyes, hands and face always play a dominant role.
Inseparable from the creation process of her works are the accompanying handwritten texts, which often take the form of small poems. Text and image form an inseparable unity.
