Eugene Brands Biography

(b amsterdam, 15 jan 1913). dutch painter and draughtsman. he studied at the handelsschool (1927–31) and at the kunstnijverheidsschool (1931–4), both in amsterdam. during world war ii he created surreal assemblages and abstract drawings, and his work was shown for the first time in 1946 in the jonge schilders exhibition in the stedelijk museum, amsterdam. in august 1948 he joined the dutch experimentele groep, which later became part of cobra. compared to the work produced by members of cobra such as constant or karel appel, his work is dreamy and poetic. his starting-point was the world of the child and humanity in its natural state, where magic, eroticism and cosmos are central notions, for example walking house (1951; copenhagen, paul and djula lernø priv. col.). he collected ritual objects and music from primitive peoples.
