BIO:
The International artist Hugo Kaagman is considered as the absolute key-figure in the Netherlands when it comes to Stencil-art. For many years his work has made an impact in the Netherlands, especially in Amsterdam, and abroad. Kaagmanโs work is daring and usually provides a fresh and unorthodox view on present-day topics such as the integration of immigrants, the consumer based society and so on. While raising these topics in his work, Kaagman avoids being judgemental: he intends to shows us different perspectives on these topics. Due to the sometimes controversial content of his works, Kaagman received a lot of media-attention over the past years. In March 2008 the police forced him to remove some of his canvases from his open studio in a Dutch train station, because of the possible riots it could have provoked. Although Kaagman started his career as a โstreet artistโ, his work is now celebrated by many prominent art critics. This resulted in several exhibitions in museums like the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and the Zuiderzee Museum Enkhuizen. Recently Kaagman exhibited some of his work at the Cans Festival, London, where he worked along side world-renowned artist Banksy. A great part of Kaagmanโs oeuvre is formed by commissions, varying from paintings on seventeen British Airways planes, to smaller-scale projects such as murals for the city of Amsterdam. Kaagmanโs latest canvases depict broad range of multi-cultural and present-day subjects. In these works of art, the viewer is guaranteed to enjoy Kaagmanโs masterly techniques of airbrush and stencils to the fullest.
