Carel Visser

Carel Nicolaas Visser was a Dutch sculptor. He studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, where he was influenced by the work of artists such as Piet Mondrian and Georges Vantongerloo.

Visser's early work was characterized by his use of industrial materials such as steel and iron. He often worked with found objects, transforming them into abstract sculptures that explored the relationship between form and space.

In the 1960s, Visser's work began to incorporate more organic shapes and materials, such as wood and stone. He continued to experiment with a wide range of materials throughout his career, creating sculptures that were often characterized by their simplicity and elegance.

Visser's work has been exhibited in major museums and galleries around the world, including the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. He is considered one of the most important sculptors of the post-war period, and his influence can be seen in the work of many contemporary artists working today.
