Petrus De Man 
Introduction
A very gifted draftsman, Petrus de Man is able to grasp in a few strokes the core of a subject matter, of a situation. His compositions, apparently simple are in fact the result of a very accurate observation. His minimalist drawings are self-evident.
Petrus de Man : a few landmarks
Born in 1955, Petrus de Man exhibited his drawings for the first time at the age of 17. After a solid training at the St.-Lukasinstituut of Ghent, he became an art professor, and continued to develop his skills. Since 1990, his drawings are regularly shown in Belgium and in France.
