Peter Klasen's paintings are currently exposed in more than 80 museums worldwide, a consecration for the artist. He was born in Lübeck in 1935 and trained at the School of fine arts of the Post-war Berlin. Art history eventually considered Peter Klasen as the principal founder of the Narrative Figuration movement. Nevertheless, art historian Jean-Luc Chalumeau. might have been right when he claimed that Klasen is “the leader of the European Realist movement, an alternative to Pop-Art”. This is a way to assert that in Klasen’s work, graphic strength, instant beauty, are also a part of language. Peter Klasen displayed some of his work at the Cristel Editeur d’Art Center in Saint-Malo in 2016. The exhibition was the logical consequence of the collaboration started the year before, with the creation of two prints for the art centre.
