For those who don’t know Jules Deelder, he is a Rotterdam icon who unfortunately has left us recently. But his jazz music and poetry will keep on living when we honour this hero.

De Laat started painting murals and canvases, often based on his own photographs of the people he met during his travels. He exaggerates the natural lines in their faces, and fills the spaces that appear between those swirling lines with swaths of vivid color.
