A TRIBUTE (1935-2016)
The Dutch painter Jan Roeland (1935) died in November 2016 at the age of eighty-one. As a tribute to this extraordinary and contemplative painter, the Kunsthal Rotterdam is presenting a selective visual narrative incorporating all his readily identifiable themes with 41 paintings from museum, corporate and private collections. It is a tribute to a painter whose strength lies in the combination of theme, use of colour and painted surface. He was self-taught, went on to become a teacher himself, won several major awards, and always stuck to what he was good at.
