Chris de Bueger (1948)

Residing and working in Amsterdam, the mortal artist Chris de Bueger (born 1948) completed his education at Gerrit Rietveld Academie between the years 1966 to 1970, where he specialized in the intricate crafts of painting and graphics. After his studies, De Bueger embarked on an extended journey to Morocco, where he first began to create works reminiscent of the New Figuration movement, often depicting still lifes with unorthodox compositions. In later years, his creations took on a more abstract form – characterized by dynamic patterns of spots, stripes, and beams – but in recent times, De Bueger has returned to crafting unmistakable figures and animals using his signature, delicate lines. For many years, De Bueger served as a professor at A.K.I. (now Artez) in Enschede and the esteemed Rijksacademie in Amsterdam. His masterpieces have been acquired by numerous collections, including the illustrious Guggenheim Museum in New York.
