Tino Lintelo, born: Voorburg 1943. In the years 1959-1964, he followed an MO-A and 8 course in drawing at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague and was taught by Co Westrik, Wim Beuningen and Theo Bitter, among others. At the Free Academy in The Hague, figure drawing with Georg Hadeler and etching with Gerard Lutz. In the first years after his training, he attended exhibitions in The Hague and Delft (Oostpoort), where he mainly showed the possibilities of pen and ink on a small format; he started from people, things in situations where natural forms we! which had changed but still remained recognisable. Topics that appealed to him were processions, hospitals, eroticism and procreation. A few years later his themes will not undergo many changes; they mainly deal with people who form figures in relation to each other or figures in usually a landscape environment. In the 1970s he regularly exhibited in The Hague, Delft, Nijmegen, Dordrecht Leidschendam and Voorburg. At that time, miniatures were also created in watercolor on paper in the size 6 x 9 cm. Topics with the theme such as: queen of hearts and card figures that are in a wonderful way related to her or his environment or the theme of money, where each association produces a new miniature. The motifs such as sports and every situation of people in action found their imagination, although the real situation was somewhat drawn into an alienating atmosphere. Lately there has also been a lot of etching, much in black and white but also color etching. His work can be found in private collections at home and abroad and in the Hofwijck museum in Voorburg. Another aspect of him are his watercolors and oil paintings of various natural places in the Netherlands, as this form of painting, although convincingly skilled, is not shown at this exhibition, no comments are made about it. The work on display at the exhibition mainly follows the trend of the last 10 years, the miniatures are also on display, but larger works have also been created in recent years, measuring the length and width of half to one. approach the whole meter.
