Hans Marinus van Dokkum (Rotterdam, 23 October 1908 – Utrecht, 24 January 1995) was a Dutch watercolourist, draftsman, graphic artist and painter.
Life and work
Van Dokkum studied at the National School for Art Teachers in Amsterdam. He taught at secondary schools in Utrecht, where he was a colleague of Ivan Ingen. He created village scenes, winter landscapes, and self-portraits.
His techniques were very varied. He was a watercolorist, etcher, wood engraver, lithographer, pastelist, pen artist, painter, and draftsman. Van Dokkum was known, among other things, for his skill in sugar etching and created many bookplates. He was chairman of the Association for the Promotion of Graphic Arts, known as "De Grafische," and the Painting and Drawing Society Kunstliefde in Utrecht, and a member of Arti et Amicitiae in Amsterdam.
Van Dokkum lived for a long time in Sterrenburg in Utrecht until 1995.
Price
In 1988, Hans van Dokkum, as chairman of Kunstliefde, decided to establish an annual prize to give Utrecht's visual arts an extra boost. The prize was named "Seeing and Displaying" and was specifically intended to stimulate figurative visual art, as Van Dokkum wrote in his motivation.
Recent winners of this prize are: 2006 Diana van der Ley, 2007 Dennis Teunissen, 2008 Li Jia Fan, 2009 Nena Sesic-Fiser.
