The Dutch artist Christiaan Lieverse, born in 1971, had his first solo exhibition in 2000 and achieved international success in 2005. His work includes abstract as well as figurative and experimental contemporary art, which is presented at major international exhibitions.

Unique technique and unmistakable design

Using a unique technique that he has refined over the years, Lieverse manages to ensure the authenticity and distinctiveness of his works. Layering different colours and materials creates depth, transparency and three-dimensional effects. The combination of rough linen, dynamic palette knife application and fine brushwork is characteristic of his work and provides the subtle differences in each piece, both intentional and intuitive.

The question of identity

A central theme in Lievere's art is the question of identity in a globalised world. He often depicts people who appear to be looking at something outside the canvas, creating a strong emotional resonance. His works reflect clear emotions and always remain open to individual interpretation thanks to their minimalist, contemporary execution. They convey the feeling that something has just happened or is about to happen, similar to a film scene. Lieverse aims to create a connection between the viewer and the unknown - in an immediate, empathetic way.

Atelier Lieverse's artworks are characterised by their large-scale dimensions, monochrome colour palette, raw linen and intense craftsmanship, which give each work a unique touch. Renowned galleries represent Atelier Lieverse and his work is exhibited at leading international art fairs.
