ABOUT THE ARTIST
Hans Arkeveld was born on 27 August 1942 in Scheveningen, Holland. He migrated to Australia with his family in 1952 and lived in migrant camps in Victoria and Western Australia before settling in Collie, WA. Arkeveld left school at the age of 13 and worked as a builder’s apprentice and beekeeper. Later, he studied ticket writing and typewriting at Perth Technical College, and in 1963 he enrolled in Commercial Art. He ended up with a Diploma in Fine Art (Painting). Arkeveld has taught drawing and sculpture in art schools, including UWA’s Department of Architecture and Fine Art and their workshops held in India and Sri Lanka. He has exhibited extensively both nationally and internationally, with five major solo exhibitions and over 200 group shows to date. Arkeveld has undertaken numerous public and private commissions and has received prizes, awards, and recognition for his contributions to society, including the WA Chancellor’s Medal, the Commonwealth Centenary Medal, the Artsource Lifetime Achievement Award, and Honorary Life Membership of Mundaring Art Centre. Overall, Arkeveld’s artwork explores the human body, questioning consciousness, self-awareness, good and evil, and how they relate to Australia’s immigration policy and human rights issues.
