Jan Roede or Roëde (1914-2007) was a Dutch artist whose work embodied a playful yet profound exploration of form, color, and composition. His works from the mid-20th century are characterized by their vibrant use of color and whimsical forms. Roede had a unique ability to combine geometric shapes with organic lines, creating compositions that were both structured and fluid. This blend of order and spontaneity gave his work a distinctive charm, often evoking a sense of childlike wonder and joy.
Roede was deeply influenced by the CoBrA movement, a European avant-garde art collective known for its unorthodox approach and emphasis on spontaneity. This influence is evident in Roede's embrace of bold colors, expressive forms, and the incorporation of fantastical elements into his works.
The bowl comes in a good vintage condition with some signs of age and use on the enamel.
