ABOUT THE ARTIST
Pat Andrea (born 1942) is a Dutch contemporary painter associated with the New Subjectivity and Figurative Expressionism movements. Born in The Hague, he developed a distinctive style that blends figuration with surreal and often unsettling imagery. His paintings frequently depict distorted human figures in ambiguous, emotionally charged situations, exploring themes of violence, desire, and psychological tension.
Andrea studied at the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague and later became a prominent member of the “Nieuwe Haagse School” (New Hague School) . His work gained international recognition in the 1970s and 1980s, particularly in Europe and Latin America, where he spent significant time influencing local art scenes.
Among his major achievements are his role in revitalizing figurative painting during a period dominated by abstraction, as well as exhibiting in major museums and biennials worldwide. Andrea also served as a professor at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, shaping future generations of artists.
