Mercedes Choufoer (born in Amsterdam, 1953) has been exposed to art since
her early youth by her parents friends. Sketching and playing with colors
was her greatest pleasure from childhood on. In 1969 she met the Dutch
painter Fred Klein, father of the world famous Yves Klein. Via Klein in
Paris, she was introduced into the world of international artists; painters
and sculptures. In 1989, Mercedes Choufoer started Gallery Mercedes with a
framing atelier. Promoting the visiting artists, organizing the exhibitions
every 5 weeks, next to the framing work, prevented her from doing much
painting of her own. A few years ago however, she decided to let painting be
her most important occupation. Inspiration has never been an issue. Mercedes
is fond of landscapes; the changing of colors and seasonal light. Her own
sunny character doesn’t prevent her from being impresses and inspired by
moonlight or snowy landscapes. Painting outside or in her atelier, abstract
or figurative, everything can happen as long as the spirit is there.
