Toon Kelder was inspired by the Parisian avant-garde artists and he developed a highly personal style in the early years of the twentieth century.
Later on the dark expressionist paintings of Toon Kelder turned in light luminist work. His subjects ranged from landscapes and interiors to nudes and still lifes. After World War II he broke with figurative art and he rejected the use of oil paint. From then on he only worked with gouache and watercolor paint and his abstract compositions he built up with black, white and gray tones.
At the same time he started working as a sculptor. One of his abstract sculptures is in the collection of the MoMA (New York)
Toon Kelder exhibited in several major museums in Holland and abroad.
His work is represented in the Rijksmuseum, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Gemeente Museum in the Hague, Groninger Museum, the Carnegie Museum of Art in Pittsburgh and the MoMA in New York.
(Literature: Toon Kelder, Romantisch Modernist, by Jaap Versteegh. Publisher Waanders & de Kunst) - Sobre artistaToon Kelder é um dos vários pintores inspirados pelos artistas de vanguarda parisiense que desenvolveram um estilo altamente pessoal nos primeiros anos do século XX. Ao mesmo tempo, seu trabalho foi moldado por um impulso constante para inovar. Na década de 1920 ele pintou flores, figuras e nus - principalmente usando sua esposa Alexandrine como modelo - tudo representado em cores expressivas. Ao longo dos anos 1930 até cerca de 1945, ele desenvolveu formas femininas sutilmente estilizadas retratadas em tons suaves e nebulosos, mas também cavaleiros a cavalo e figuras míticas em paisagens arborizadas. Depois de 1945, ele desistiu da pintura figurativa e se dedicou à criação de esculturas abstratas. Ele passou algum tempo em Antibes, onde fez belos desenhos a tinta. É considerado membro da Escola de Nieuwe Haagse.
