Edit KV: This item is a woodcut by Piet Wiegman II (1930-2008). The biography below relates to Piet Wiegman I, so not to the maker of the work offered here.
- Petrus Cornelis Constant (Piet) Wiegman (Zwolle, April 18, 1885 – Alkmaar, September 30, 1963) was a Dutch painter, graphic artist, ceramist and puppet carver.
At the age of 21 he starts painting. He had drawn a lot for that. His first paintings show the influence of George Hendrik Breitner. In 1908 he decides to make painting his profession, perhaps under the influence of his brothers Jan Wiegman and Matthieu Wiegman, and he enrols at the Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten in Amsterdam. However, he only lasts three months there.
In 1913 he settles in Groet and devotes himself entirely to painting. In 1921-1922 he lives in Amsterdam, now together with his brand new wife Janna Formijne, where he gets to know a group of artists, including Wim Schuhmacher, through the art dealer Jack Vecht.
From 1922 to 1929 the family lives in Thorn, Limburg. In that period a lifelong and fruitful friendship was established with Hendrik Wiegersma and his wife Nel Daniëls. Wiegman also feels an affinity with Constant Permeke in his choice of subjects, use of color and painting style. In Thorn he makes many woodcuts, he carves dolls for the Wiegersma children and starts to sculpt.
In 1929 they return to North Holland and in 1938 they move into a house with a spacious studio in Groet. He is counted among the Bergense School. From 1932 Piet Wiegman also works as a ceramist. Wiegman was unable to work during the war, but after 1945 and despite the rise of the Cobra movement, he recovered. However, a heart attack in 1950 made painting impossible for him and limited his energy and concentration. He experiences another important peak in 1950; on the occasion of his 65th birthday there is a retrospective exhibition in the Prinsenhof in Delft.
