Ben Joppe (1915-2007) lived at Lauriergracht 80,
Amsterdam, the address of the Steendrukkerij Amsterdam Gallery, from
1983-1993. In January 2012 he returns as an artist. The Ben Joppe
Foundation, founded by the artist shortly before his death in 2007,
sells Ben's expressive paintings and works on paper to support its aims:
to stimulate talent in symphonic music and other forms of art.
The exhibition follows two biographical and artistic strands.
