He was briefly associated with the renowned artists' group CoBrA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1946, Brands participated in the group exhibition \u003cem\u003eJonge schilders\u003c\/em\u003e at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam. Through his experimental work around the war years, he played a pioneering role for CoBrA artists such as Appel, Constant, and Corneille. Shortly after the 1949 exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, where CoBrA presented itself in the Netherlands for the first time, Brands left the group. In the 1950s, he withdrew to his studio and became inspired by the drawings of his young daughter, Eugénie. In the 1960s, he returned to the colour palette associated with CoBrA. Throughout his life, Brands was fascinated by the cosmos, stars, and planets, as well as by the mystery of life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eViewing \u0026amp; Shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis artwork can be viewed and collected in Borne, Overijssel.
