Episode 512 / Jasper Hagenaar 

Jasper Hagenaar is a painter who lives and works in the Netherlands. Evoking the ambience of vintage lifestyle magazines or art book photography there is so much ambience captured in Jasper’s carefully framed imagery. Often times portraying still life compositions built from other existing artworks, his paintings feel both contemporary and classic, all while appearing faded and aged and therefore precious. Jasper was a resident artist at the Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten in Amsterdam in 2004 and 2005. He was a recipient of both the jury and public award of the Royal Dutch painting prize in 2012. His works are part of significant Dutch museum collections as the Centraal Museum Utrecht, Dordrechts museum and the Teylers museum. His paintings have recently been shown internationally in group exhibitions at Hive, Centre for contemporary arts, Beijng and Rhodes Contemporary art gallery, London. His works can be found in numerous corporate and private collections in the Netherlands and abroad. He lives and works in Hedikhuizen, the Netherlands and is represented by Althuis Hofland Fine Arts in Amsterdam.
