Ad van Hassel
In 1980 Ad started painting. After years of pursuing various creative pursuits, he started two exclusive galleries in Amsterdam's Sonesta and Krasnapolsky hotels in 1983. His tulip paintings are best known.
In 1990, Ad started to focus on making screen prints of his own paintings. He achieved such good quality that soon other artists also had their work screen printed by Ad. For example, he was Herman Brood's house printer for 12 years. Corneille, Jan Cremer, Rob Scholte, Peter Diem and many other artists also made frequent use of his expertise. After the disappearance of artists such as Herman Brood and Corneille , Ad saw the opportunity to specialize in a completely new technique, namely using CNC laser cutting and milling of various plastic materials to create insanely colored sculptures.
