In this episode Kuno talks to Hans Broek (Netherlands). Hans is a very successful painter of primarily desert landscapes and urban scenery. His work fits a Dutch tradition of post-modernism, combining wild nature and modern culture. He has exhibited at Stedelijk Museum (Amsterdam), Victoria Miro Gallery (London), Black Dragon Society (LA) and The Royal Palace (Amsterdam). In April 2005 there was a big show at the Torch Gallery in Amsterdam. In 1995 he moved from Amsterdam to Los Angeles where the environment perfectly matched his desire for new paintings. In the following inspiring period he became an established artist but noticed that real business in the arts is not happening in LA. Now Hans is in the process of moving to New York City, capital of the art world. New York Alive was allowed a look in his new Brooklyn studio. For this show he made a special selection of works which will be shown and discussed.
