Johann Faber
Johan(n) Faber (Groningen, 19 July 1902 – Groningen, 4 November 1979; after WWII also spelled as Johan Faber), was a Dutch visual artist and member of De Ploeg. He used various techniques, such as brush sketches, lithographs, etchings, watercolours and oil paint. In 1922 he became an aspiring member of De Ploeg. In 1933 he was unanimously admitted as a working member of De Ploeg. Until well into the 1970s he took part in the annual Ploeg exhibitions.
In his early days his work was related to the modern styles of the time such as Jugendstil and Naturalism. Over time his technique became more robust with large strokes, which is characterized as fresco-like. He found his themes in the North Drenthe and Groningen landscape, where the low horizon is particularly characteristic.
