Marinus Adrianus George (Rien) Goené (Utrecht, July 20, 1929 – Utrecht, June 13, 2013) was a Dutch sculptor and painter.

The painting has beautiful soft tones and the portret is striking.

Life and Work
from 1947, Goené was trained at the Utrecht art academy Artibus.[1] He learned painting from Mar Diemèl, modeling from Piet Jongbloed, and monumental art from Abram Stokhof de Jong.[2] Inspired by the Cobra movement founded in 1948, Goené worked experimentally and expressively. His sculptures, mostly abstract in form, were made from scrap and bronze.[3] As a painter, he worked colorfully in oil, both abstract and figurative (landscapes and women), and he was inspired in this by, among others, Henri Matisse and Picasso.

In the 1960s, Goené became a teacher at Artibus. After a conflict with the administration over his free way of teaching, he had to leave the academy again. In 1956, Goené became a member of the Artists’ Association Sint Lucas and in the 1960s of Stuwing. Stuwing consisted of a group of modern sculptors and artists This piece has an attribution mark,
