Your teacher: Marianne J. Jansen
She graduated in 1984 at the A.B.K.-Minerva in Groningen in plastic spatial
design, and also got a first degree in drawing.
Since1985, she teaches drawing, painting and sculpting, and since 1995
she does this in several European countries. Since 1987, she loses herself
in movement and theater in The Netherlands, Italy and New York. She takes
lessons, workshops and participates in projects.
The works of Marianne Jansen are displayed in several galleries in The
Netherlands.
Marianne Jansen is mainly a sculptress. She values thought, feeling and
vulnerability over beauty, clearness and shape. Her sculptures touch moments
and capture memories. She combines the sculpting with drawing and painting
in her lessons.
“In my lessons, it’s all about the working process and being plastically
engaged. With the possibilities of the meterial, combined with the skills
we have developed, we can shape what we want to create. The personal touch
creates room for everyone to work out their very own ideas. As a result,
the pieces of work created in the workshops are very diverse. Sculpting
in clay and wax, cutting in ‘speksteen’ and making casts.”
