Peintures

This monograph about Jan Meyer is intended by his sons Julian and Igor as a memorial to a great artist. Great not only because of his talent (he was awarded the Prix de Rome at a very young age), but also because of his very individual and authentic style, which became known as lyric abstraction. Jan Meyer used huge knives and brushes to leave a thick relief of paint on the canvas, and his paintings are full of expression, colour and movement.
