Kees de Goede

Kees de Goede (1954) began to exhibit his work at Atelier ’63 (Haarlem) and P.S.1 (New York City). His subjects and materials originate from the world around him. The starting point for his initial drawings and paintings were the branches of wood or stalks of bamboo. De Goede tries to work in close alliance with nature. He also began an exploration into drawing on newspaper which continues to this day. De Goede lives and works in Amsterdam (the Netherlands) and in his farmhouse in Southern France. His work is included in numerous public and private collections around the world.
