Claudia Böse

 Claudia Böse (born 1963 in Nueremberg) is an  abstract painter and has been based in Suffolk, England, since 2002. Böse graduated from the Royal Academy of Arts in 1996 and is a member of the artists network Kunstnetz International. Her work has been exhibited in London (including eight times with the Royal Academy of Arts), Oxford, Birmingham, Manchester, Berlin, Neukölln, Freiburg, Valparaiso and Miami. Her work has been acquired by Abbot Hall Art Gallery, Hamburger Universität für Wirtschaft und Politik, The Priseman Seabrook Collection and the  University of Oxford. Böse says of her work "My paintings are constructed through process. Most of my paintings reflect and reference the tiny things of our built environment, the minutiae of our surroundings, the surfaces and atmospheres which seem somehow to matter."
