Biography & Artistic Style
Born in 1952 in Edremit, Turkey, Hasan Erdemir began painting regularly in 1969. In 1978, he moved to Stockholm, Sweden, he worked at the Turkish Consulate while continuing his artistic practice at home and in a shared studio (1988-1991), In 1991 he opened his own studio, collaborating with his mentor Rauf Alazan until 2006.
He was admitted to the Swedish Artists Club (Konstnärs Klubben) in 2005 following a jury selection.
Erdemir`s paintings combine expressionist emotion, vibrant colour and lyrical form. He works primarily with oil, tempera, acryl and watercolor, creating layered, textured surfaces where abstract and figurative elements interact. His works reflect subtle themes of human experience, emotion and the world around him, often accompanied by poetic, conceptual titles.
