Klaas Gubbels (Rotterdam, 1934) is one of the Netherlands' most important contemporary artists. Coffee pots, tables and chairs are recurring elements in his work. Work by Klaas Gubbels is included in many collections, including the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and Museum Boijmans van Beuningen.
Klaas Gubbels experienced the bombing of his hometown Rotterdam at the age of six. His youth was spent on the one hand between burnt-out and ruined houses in the city centre, and on the other hand with his grandparents, who lived on the Balkengat (now Balkenstraat), near a small harbour of a timber merchant on the Delfshavense Schie.[1] Gubbels came into contact with the visual arts through his father Kees Gubbels (1894-1974), who founded Kunsthandel De Brug during the war. In the fifties, Gubbels followed various courses. He followed the course in advertising painting from 1949 to 1951 at the Technical School in Rotterdam. He then found work at the advertising studio of the Rotterdam Bijenkorf. He then followed an evening course at the Academy of Visual Arts Rotterdam from 1951 to 1952. As a result of his parents' divorce, Gubbels left for Arnhem in February 1952, where he studied at the Academie Kunstoefening in Arnhem from 1952 to 1958. He also took evening classes in sculpture. Gubbels did not take his final exam for fear of failing the art history section.[1] In the 1970s, Klaas Gubbels was a teacher at the Academy of Fine Arts Rotterdam, now the Willem de Kooning Academy, together with other painters and graphic artists such as Hannes Postma and sculptor Kees Franse. Gubbels works in Arnhem in his studio in the coach house of the Lichtenbeek estate or in France in the Ardèche.[2] Exhibitions
