Theo Bitter (1916-1994).
Theo Bitter was a Dutch graphic artist, painter and draughtsman who is considered to belong to the New Hague School. In addition to drawing and painting, he was involved in monumental art, textile design and book illustration.
Bitter lived and worked in The Hague, Oslo and Italy. He travelled to France and the United States, where he stayed in 1950 at the invitation of the Rockefeller Foundation.
Bitter studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, where Henk Meijer (1884-1970) and Arnold Smith were his teachers. Later from 1946-1960 he taught at the same academy. He worked in The Hague, Oslo, Lecce and later again in The Hague, where he lived in the Artiestenhofje on the Trompstraat.
He painted, drew and watercoloured family portraits in a naive style; fishermen at sea in an abstract-expressionist style; landscapes in an abstract style and figures in a neo-abstract style. Bitter was co-founder of Verve and Fugare and a member of the Pulchri Studio and the Hague Watercolourists. He worked together with Dirk Bus.
Bitter received the Jacob Maris Prize for painting in 1949.
