Lucebert

Original Signed Artworks & Limited Edition Prints For Sale

Lucebert is a renowned Dutch poet-painter, often cited as one of the biggest inspirations for a lot of the Dutch poetry that has followed his own. Lucebert found his initial success as a member of the Experimentele Groep Holland, which later went on to merge with the much bigger force of CoBrA.

The oft-quoted line of poetry ‘Alles van waarde is weerloos (everything of value is defenceless) is shared through a variety of different mediums, most notably as a neon sign atop a building in Rotterdam. Lucebert’s poetry was free expression of his own personality and views on life, and was often a blistering attack on the hypocrisy and pitfalls of societal respectability at the time – his first public appearance as a poet in Amsterdam was executed with the reading of a poem ‘Love-letter to our tortured bride, Indonesia’ - a direct and disparaging response to the Dutch military aggression towards Indonesia in 1948.

What is avant-garde?

Unusual and experimental ideas in arts or on the side of people introducing the ideas. The ideas push the boundaries or limits of what is accepted as the status quo or norm in the realm of culture. The movement is liked by artists and many of them continue doing it tracing Dada's history through situationists all the way to the post modern artists.
