Corneille to be buried in same cemetery as Van Gogh

Wednesday 08 September 2010

Dutch avant-garde artist Corneille, who died last weekend in Paris, will be buried in the French town of Auvers-sur-Oise, the Volkskrant said on Wednesday.

Vincent van Gogh and his brother Theo are buried in the same cemetery.

Corneille, one of the founders of the Cobra movement, died on Sunday at the age of 88. He lived and worked in France since the 1950s and spent considerable time in Auvers-sur-Oise, where Van Gogh died in 1890.
