Theodor Schokker Dutch, b. 1933

Schokker makes abstract images, in which not the shape but hardly visible events in nature are decisive. He calls his work physiological, based on the observed.

Schokker was born and raised in Amsterdam, where he also followed some art education. He works from a studio in Amsterdam's Jordaan.

In the professional field, Schokker has long been committed to good social arrangements and affordable workshops for the professional field of artists. To reinforce that demand, he organised occupations of the Rijksmuseum and Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam with supporters in the 1970s and 1980s.
