The Dutch artist Peter Diem (1945) paints like a tornado and lives his art. Bold, fearless colors, thick, juicy paint, and daring, sensual lines are the hallmark of his paintings. They reflect his zest for life, his sense of humor, and his pronounced individuality. The powerful paintings are thus representative exponents of his turbulent lifestyle. In his early twenties, Peter Diem traded the Netherlands for the United States. He spent his days earning a living as a lithographer, but his soul was steeped in the paintings he worked on at night in his studio. Peter was, and still is, fascinated by the COBRA group (an art school originating from Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam), which experimented wildly. Through this inspiration, color became his primary means of expression. Type of work: Screen print Signature: Hand-signed Edition: 175/250 Framed: Yes Size: 39 x 29 cm (h x w) Incl.
