Pieter Antonie van Stuivenberg was born in Schiedam and trained at the Rotterdam Academy of Visual Arts and Technical Sciences from 1921 to 1927. He started his sculpting career as a stonemason, first influenced by expressionism and later working more abstractly, with geometric and tighter shapes.
Piet was a member of the Rotterdam circle of visual artists R 33.
He made study trips to Brussels, London and Paris and successively joined the artist groups Vrij Beelden (with the Rotterdammers Koos van Vlijmen and Wout van Heusden), Creatie and Nieuwe Ploeg in Voorburg. In 1950 he was represented with work at the fifth Salon des réalités nouvelles in Paris.
In 1967 Van Stuivenberg received the Hendrik Chabot Prize and in 1981 a retrospective exhibition was dedicated to his work by the Stedelijk Museum Schiedam. His work is in the collections of the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in Rotterdam and the Schiedam Stedelijk Museum.
