Large oil painting figure, background thinned paint. good state. signed bottom left. little signs of age.
shipping in a large and spacious tube. Biography. From 1949 he studied fine arts at the Sint-Lucasschool in Ghent. Six years after his first visit to Africa in 1956, he went to live in Zaire only to return after 13 years.
Pillen's work reflects a lot of creativity. In a period of more than 50 years, his work evolved from expressionism - inspired by his stay in Africa - to contemporary modern art. The influence of African culture is especially recognizable in the colorful scenes. People are central to his work. Figures are never fixed on the ground but “float”.
His most famous work can be seen in "Thailand Cultural Center" in the metro of Bangkok. There, a work on a canvas measuring 2 meters by 10 meters was unveiled by Princess Astrid and Prince Lorenz of Belgium. His works have also been shown in the past in San Francisco, New York, Chicago, Paris, Kinshasa and Johannesburg, among others.
