- Information about the artist:
- Arie Johannes (Aat) Veldhoen (Amsterdam, November 1, 1934 – Amsterdam, December 9, 2018) was a Dutch visual artist and graphic artist.
- He grew up in Amsterdam and learned the trade of artist from his father, who was first a commercial painter and later a painter.
- Aat Veldhoen started his career as a draftsman, but soon established his name as an independent artist.
- -Subjects: dune landscapes, self-portraits, naked women and couples making love.
- He bought his first etching press from the Royal Subsidy for Painting, which he received three times in a row around 1956. He later started drawing directly on offset plates, in order to have the "rotaprints" printed in large numbers. With this he wanted to fulfil his ideal of making art accessible to everyone; it had to be 'popular graphics'. On a cargo bike full of prints, Veldhoen rode through Amsterdam between around 1964 and 1967, where he sold graphic work for three guilders a piece.
- From the 1990s until his death in 2018, he was the partner of the Dutch sociologist, social geographer, feminist and former politician Hedy d'Ancona (1937).
- Aat Veldhoen passed away in 2018 at the age of 84 in Amsterdam.
