Albert Carel Willink ((:ˈɑlbərt ˈkaːrəl ˈʋɪlɪnk); 7 March 1900 – 19 October 1983) was a Dutch painter who called his style of Magic realism "imaginary realism". == Life and career == Albert Carel Willink was born on 7 March 1900 in Amsterdam in the Netherlands.〔(Carel Willink ), Netherlands Institute for Art History. Retrieved on 26 March 2015.〕 He was the eldest son of the mechanic Jan Willink and Wilhelmina Altes. His father was an amateur artist who encouraged his son to paint. After briefly studying medicine, in 1918-19 Willink studied architecture at the Technische Hogeschool in Delft. Afterwards he left for Germany, where he failed to get into the academy in Düsseldorf. He later studied for a short time at the Staatliche Hochschule in Berlin. Willink's earliest paintings were in an expressionist manner, although he also painted abstract works at the time that he exhibited with the November group in 1923. By 1924 he had adopted a figurative style influenced by Picasso's neoclassical paintings of the early 1920s, and especially by Léger. Later in the decade, Willink developed a magic realist style related to the metaphysical paintings of Giorgio de Chirico. From 1935 until his death Willink lived in Amsterdam. His realistically rendered paintings frequently depict slightly disquieting scenes taking place in front of imposing buildings. He also painted many portraits. Willink died, at the age of 83, in Amsterdam on 19 October 1983.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Carel Willink」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
