Nicolas Eekman, born in 1889 in Brussels, died in Paris in 1973.

Trained in Brussels, Eekman moved to Paris in 1921.

After the beginnings influenced by cubism, he developed a form of Flemish Realism in the 1920s. After the War, its production took a more fantastic turn. Although very linked to Mondrian, then between the two wars to many artists from Montparnasse, Max Jacob, Louis Marcoussis, Kisling etc etc etc etc etc etc etc., Nico Eekman works and deploys a very personal work. Modernity comes to him to lay its veil on an artistic practice that is very rooted in traditional Flemish iconography. This allows him to produce, through his virtuoso drawing and glossy painting, images that are sometimes disturbing in modernity.
