Peter Klashorst (1957\u20132024) was one of the most colourful Dutch painters of his generation. In the early 1980s he made his name as one of the New Wild Ones, won the Royal Subsidy for Free Painting and exhibited in New York. He co-founded the After Nature collective, which painted live in the street and in nightclubs, and later lived and worked in Africa and Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n\n

He painted with oils, car paint and spray paint, on canvas, paper and PVC, and never stopped questioning art history, from Rembrandt and Vermeer to Picasso. This website presents his life and work, and offers a selection of his original works for sale.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n

In the end for me art is about freedom and not success and money.<\/p>\nPeter Klashorst<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
