(1960)
The Man on the Bus. 1982
Oil, canvas. 100.5 x 75 cm (framed)
price 4 600
A slightly rustic, unsophisticated gentleman sitting on a cushioned long-distance bus seat, reading a paper, expresses his opinion about something we have no idea about with an expression on his face. However, he seems to be a decent gentleman with the right values in life. Since the 1980s, when he established himself as an artist at exhibitions, Rein Kelpman's works have repeatedly been concerned with painting small towns and provinces on a large scale. Here, its own microworld with human relationships is revealed, which may not be understood outside. This painting is the work of a 22-year-old artist, which felt fresh in its time and still does. It is the psychological moment that makes a painting interesting.
