Harry Rump
Harry Rump (1946) is
autodidact and fine painter. In his
youth already he drew and painted many
portraits. In the seventies he picked up
painting again, but at this point his
style became surrealistic and later more
magical realistic. In spite of many
interruptions due to his busy life as
the co-founder of the first school for
hypnotherapy in The Netherlands and – in
1990 – the establishment of the Jungian
Institute in Nijmegen, together with his
wife Madeleine Witteveen, he kept his
passion for the art of painting. In 1999
he founded the gallery & studio “The Red
House” in the artists village Ubud on
Bali, together with his wife and an
artist from Bali. In 2004 he
participated in a group exposition in
the capital Denpasar. A Balinese paper
wrote: “He is an expatriate painter who
offers something new in the land of
Bali, continuing the place of former
Dutch painters like Rudolf Bonnet and
Hoffker.”
In October 2006 the official opening
took place of “The House of Arts Grave”,
the gallery & studio where his work is
exhibited. |
