I always knew that I would be ” artist is a statement of Herman Brood you regularly encounter in interviews . Herman Brood has therefore been painted throughout his life and signed but has become famous in the first place with his music .
Born in Zwolle Bread appears as child. Colorblind That does not keep him from going just to keep it off. Several months to art school in Arnhem in later life
But he discovered in this period another passion : music. In Cuby & the Blizzards his musical career starts , his greatest successes with his book Bread Wild Romance band . When the success of ” Saturday Night ” is no longer equaled , Bread stores to painting .

The Dutch artist Herman Brood was born on November 5, 1946 and was everything a pedigree performer . In his music , especially in his poems and in his paintings and serigraphs . His work shows a great passion that he was able to turn in form and color . Thanks to his mastery of the art in a brilliant way The great interest in his work for Herman Brood meant a great incentive . Just like during his performances with his band was the interaction with the audience an encouragement and inspiration at the same time .

The countless impressions and experiences that he had collected in his tumultuous life , he translated into art with a capital A. Art which the interest is only increasing because authenticity now aanmaal flawlessly recognize late . Herman Brood always chose a tangible image with your slogans reminiscent of a cartoon.

The mass media have enabled us in an exuberant way to take all the different styles of the past knowledge. These all have proven their quality , we may need to draw from . I think is the way each style period for an ideology , the ideology of the time in which they arose . Today, that historic styles ( and ideologies ) recognized alongside each other and with a style and a certain ideology propagated message , then that message in any case no longer clear . My work is not clear . I always try to make different layers of meaning . In Not only content , but also formal, so concerning the use of my painting materials , the way I paint my example proceeds .
Content keeps me busy especially the phenomenon of fragmentation . Both psychological ( who am I ) and in sociology (which I have ) sense. The idea of ‘unity ‘ I have to drop . Both the man and to society The unitary idea is fictional, reality consists of several parts . Man wants outwardly seem like it as a unit . This is more of a personality ( role ) play , then a personality (think of Madonna , Cindy Sherman , Laura Anderson ) . The step of this vision in my work, which is composed unveiled , will be clear . The images I use are known , they have a meaning . I play with them and add my worldview. The spectator takes on what he recognizes .
