Fred Sieger (1902–1999)
Untitled, signed ‘Sieger’ and dated '61 lower left. In 1958 and 1959, Sieger took part in the first high-profile exhibition of the Informal Group, alongside artists including Armando, Jan Schoonhoven and Henk Peeters. The artist was a lecturer at the art academy in Arnhem from 1951 to 1967. Partly for this reason, it was the wish of him and his wife, Helen White, to dedicate part of their legacy to supporting and encouraging talented young artists from the eastern Netherlands: the Sieger-White Young Talent Award.
Oil on canvas, 50.5 x 60 cm (frame: 61 x 71.3 cm).
