Alexander Verduijn den Boer

Alexander Verduijn den Boer was born in The Hague, Netherlands in 1958. He attended the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague, where he earned his Bachelor of Fine Art in Drawing and Painting in 1983.

His work focuses on cityscapes, industrial sites, ports, and the periphery of cities. He draws inspiration from broken, wasted, and out-of-use objects and places. He works on location, drawing and painting the Dutch landscape as it has transformed over the past century, and also works in Spain, where he explores vast landscapes marked by minimal human activity. His practice encompasses linocut prints, charcoal drawings, and oil painting.
