Arthur Spronken (Beek, 1930 – Sittard, 2018) was a Dutch sculptor.
Artist Arthur Spronken is considered the founding father of Limburg sculptors.
In his youth Spronken was influenced by his father and grandfather's love of horses,
After studying at the Maastricht School of Arts and Crafts, Spronken went to Milan for a year, where he took lessons from the famous Marino Marini, a specialist in the field of horses in sculpture.
His figurative sculptures focus on the dynamics of bodies, dancers and later horse torsos.
Queen Beatrix, a sculptor herself, visited him privately several times because she admired his work.
In 1996, a retrospective exhibition took place in the Beelden aan Zee museum in Scheveningen, where his monument to the royal family was given a permanent place.
