Reinhoud d'Haese (21 October 1928 - 01 July 2007), [1] known mononymously as Reinhoud, was a Belgian sculptor known for his surrealistic style of sculptures.
Reinhoud was born in 1928 in Grammont, Belgium and the brother of sculptors Degga and nl:Roel D'Haese. [2] [3] He originally trained to become a goldsmith at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts but pursued sculpting instead. [4] Reinhoud joined the Cobra group in 1949 after being introduced by Pierre Alechinsky. [5] Reinhoud was awarded the Prize for Young Belgian Sculpture in 1957. [6]
In 1959, Reinhoud moved to La Bosse, France, where he died on 24 June 2007. [6]
Reinhoud's work has been described as "grotesque" and evocative of Halloween, and in a style to that of Hieronymus Bosch and Brueghel. [7] [8] Reinhoud's sculpture, Against One's Will, once featured at Antwerp's sculpture garden, was described as a "grotesquely grimacing dwarf seemingly formed in contours of saggy drapery". [9] Reinhoud's sculptures were created as one-offs. [10]
Anders dan veel andere kleinsculpturen, zijn de beelden van Reinhoud unieke stukken[Unlike many other small sculptures, Reinhoud's are one-offs]
