Carel Visser (1928-2015).
Exhibited: Rotterdam, Nieuwe Instituut, “Built Homecoming”: The House of Aldo and Hannie van Eyck, 12 September 2024-15 January 2025; Literature: Aldo van Eyck, Niet om het even … wel evenwaardig, van en over Aldo van Eyck, Rotterdam, 1986, p. 64 (illustrated in b/w). The statue can be seen standing in Aldo's office in Loenen aan de Vecht in the centre of the photograph, standing in the window alcove. (photo by Alejandro Campos Uribe)
In an interview with the artist in Aldo van Eyck 1986 (pp. 62-63), Carel Visser remembered meeting the ten-year older Aldo van Eyck in the early 1950s through Carel's brother Martin Visser. In Carel's words, it was 'friendship at first sight'; the early recognition from Aldo of Visser's work was very important to the young sculptor. Van Eyck spoke to Visser about Constantin Brancusi and made it possible for the Vissers to meet Brancusi at his studio in Paris, a visit which had a lasting impact. Aldo van Eyck designed three exhibitions of Visser's work: in De Zonnehof, Amersfoort (together with paintings by Joost van Roojen) in 1972, in the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in 1972 and finally in the Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, in 1989. See Carel Blotkamp, Carel Visser, Utrecht, 1989, p. 79, for another version of the same sculpture. Another version of the same size is in the collection of the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam (as 'Wandelend Gezin', inv.no. BA 529).
