PETER KLASHORST
Peter Klashorst (Santpoort, 1957) graduated cum laude from the Gerrit Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam. During this period he became one of the leading personalities of "The New Wild Ones," a new art movement in Europe. In 1983 he received the prestigious award (Royal Grant for Free Painting) from Queen Beatrix.
In 1987, Klashorst was one of the initiators of "After Nature," an international art collective aimed at reinventing painting and bringing art to society. The collective opposed the prevailing non-figurative style. Klashorst could often be found in New York's East Village, showing his work at the Daniel Newburg Gallery and the International Met Monument Gallery, among others.
Klashorst then traveled the world in search of inspiration, weary of the commercial art world. Like his heroes, Arthur Rimbaud (poet) and Paul Gauguin, he went to Africa. Full of romantic ideas but of course also with the harsh reality of urban African life. He exhibited at the National Museum of Kenya and gave lectures and workshops to local artists and street children. He was also arrested for his uncompromising sculptures and paintings.
