Witte Wartena (born June 18, 1976) is a Dutch artist. His work consists mainly of drawings. His work has been widely shown in international art exhibitions. His work has been described in ''Metropolis M'', a leading Dutch art magazine, as: "one of the few people in the Netherlands who make cutting edge comic strips." ==Early life and career== Wartena was born in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland. In his childhood bedroom, which was situated in the attic, the famous Dutch comic artist Marten Toonder had lived for one year during the Second World War. From a young age, he too created comics that he periodically published in a comic magazine called ''Harry''. Wartena studied art in Enschede, where he graduated with a degree in Illustration in 1998. In 2006 he successfully finished his Master's of Design course at the ECA (Edinburgh College of Art) in Illustration. Considering comics to be the most versatile art medium, Wartena and Sebastiaan Schlicher created the comic game ''Kassie Mik-Mak'' in 1997, presenting it in the Dutch town of Enschede. During that time, he was also a member and editor of Aki-magazine ''het Ei'', made a weekly comic magazine with fellow students called ''Tekno'', and was part of the programming committee of Museum 7514BK Enschede, the Netherlands. There he was responsible for the opening show of the newly established museum. He opted for the first ever retrospective of Jeroen Henneman. The opening speech was spoken by the ex-professional footballer and newspaper columnist Jan Mulder. His son, Yoeri Mulder, then also attended the show. The other show he curated there was of Rogier Walrecht. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Witte Wartena」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
