Limited Edition Lithograph By Karel Appel. Born Karel Christian Appel, April 25, 1921, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands; died of a heart ailment, May 3, 2006, in Zurich, Switzerland. Artist. Expressionist painter Karel Appel made a name for himself by generating an impressive collection of highly distinguishable work for which he became internationally renowned. Appel's paintings incorporate chunky applications of vibrant, violent colors that appear methodically slapped on with frenzied brushstrokes, often depicting a childlike or schizophrenic innocence about the world. From the start, art curators could not ignore Appel's work, which has been exhibited at major museums around the world, including New York's Museum of Modern Art, the Manhattan-based Guggenheim Museum, the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston and the Tate Gallery in London.
