About Edgar: Edgar Jansen lives in
Amsterdam and is working as a portrait painter. Music and dance also
are a source of inspiration for him in his art. With his flowing
lines Edgar is able to suggest movement and to show the character of
the dance. The freedom of movement gives him the opportunity to draw
in a loose and expressive way.
As a frequent guest of dance performances and contact
improvisation jams, Edgar usually makes numerous quick sketches on
the spot. Particularly fascinating for him are partnering situations
of the dancers. In his eyes the different bodies merge into new
shapes like living sculptures that are constantly changing.
His technique is an improvisation with different art
materials (watercolor, ink and chalk). The drawings are like
‘dancing on paper’. If you are interested in contacting Edgar, go to
