Anton Heyboer - KOE

A beautiful work by Heyboer. It's your own pressure.
\r
Anton Heyboer (Sabang, 1924 – Den Ilp, 2005) was a Dutch painter and etcher. He lived with four women in a commune in Den Ilp (Landsmeer) . The 'fifth' wife was his art saleswoman across the street. Heyboer was born in Sabang, on the Indonesian island of Pulau Weh (north of Sumatra) , as the son of a mechanical engineer. Five months after his birth the family moved to Haarlem, in 1925 to Delft, in 1929 to Voorburg and from 1933 to 1938 the family lived in Curaçao. This was followed by a stay in New York. Heyboer was trained as a mechanical engineer. The family returned to Haarlem before the outbreak of the Second World War. In 1943, Heyboer was arrested by the Germans as part of the Arbeitseinsatz and transferred to a Durchgangslager for foreign forced laborers in Prenzlauer Berg (Berlin) . He managed to escape and fled traumatized to the Netherlands, where he went into hiding in Vinkeveen and did agricultural work.
