The National Gallery of Arts in Washington announced recently that has acquired its first painting by Dirck Hals (1591–1656), the younger brother of Frans Hals (c. 1582/1583–1666), who was one of the most innovative and prolific artists active in Haarlem in the early decades of the 17th century. Dirck probably trained with his brother and with the Rotterdam genre painter Willem Buytewech (1591/1592–1624). Buytewech was one of a handful of artists who specialized in small-scale merry companies—scenes of young men and women enjoying themselves either indoors or in the open air. Dirck Hals’s work, now owned by the Washington Art Gallery, is influenced by his teacher.
BASILE (SWITZERLAND)
Eduard Hoper (1882-1967)
Edward Hopper’s (1812-1967) painting was gradually identified with the twentieth century, the loneliness of the big city, the existential weight of the landscape. His work is easy and understandable at a first level but, above all, able to speak at a great average, Hopper’s overall work brings the greatness of art to every home. At the Beyeler Foundation, on the outskirts of Basel, Switzerland, the exhibition of works by the American painter continues.
Extended until September 20, 2020
