Henri Valery Vanderpoorten (1897-1977) - Expressionistisch landschap - Ardennen

Henry-Valéry Vander Poorten (Laeken, 1897 – 1977) was a Belgian modernist artist and illustrator. He signed his graphic work under the names Valéry, Atelier Henval and Studio Henval. From 1913 onward he studied at the Academy of Brussels. His father Valéry Vander Poorten (1875-1932) was also a well-known artist. After World War I he was closely involved in the emergence of modernism in Belgium. That latter fact is evident not only from a number of experimental works in which influences of futurism, cubism and expressionism are apparent. Also in his designs for music scores Vanderpoorten shows himself to be a modernist. Vander Poorten became mainly known for the more than 55 sheet music covers that he designed as a collaborator for music publishers Schott Freres, J. Buyst, International Music Company, A. Crantz, R. Roelandts, Ch. Bens and Editions Vergucht (all in Brussels) in the period 1927 to 1941. In the 1930s he also painted many plein-air pieces here and there across Europe. Notably his trip through Finland and Lapland in 1937. ARTIST: Henry Valery Vanderpoorten (1897-1977) - signed top left and on the verso MEDIUM: Oil on panel.
