Uwe Derksen

Uwe Derksen borne and grew up in Emmerich (Germany), a border town of the lower Rhine region, not far from where Joseph Beuys grew up and had his first studio. His first encounter with the arts was in the early 60s, through the local artist Hein Driessen, sitting alongside him and watching him paint and draw local motifs. The more provocative aspects came through sculptor Waldemar Kuhn’s ‘Das Schrottkreuz’ mounted in a local protestant church.
