Artist Biography:

Pierre Struys (Alkmaar 1914- Lausanne 2001) exhibited for almost 30 years. His earlier work was inspired by the Hague School. In the last ten years before his death, his oil paintings developed into a new, intensive use of color. Struys paints nudes, seascapes and still lifes. Art dealers in Switzerland, Italy and France are looking for Struy's Impressionist works because they are easy to sell. As a result, the works are rarely seen in the Netherlands. Struys has exhibited at the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, the Van Straaten Gallery in New York and the Mus_e Le Petit Palace in Geneva. The director Oscar Ghez of the latter museum regularly bought his works. Struys admired Willem de Kooning, befriended him and worked with him in his studio for three months. The results of this collaboration can be seen in works such as "NY Greenwich Village".
