Freek van den Berg (Amsterdam 1918-Veessen 2000) belongs to the group of Fauvists and was one of the last Dutch painters to work in this expressive and colorful way. His oeuvre spans half a century of diverse scenes, cityscapes and landscapes, but above all the woman who returns time and time again. He was a member of the "Independents" and he was also an art critic. Several books have been published about his oeuvre.
