Jos Letschert
I am a Dutch painter, sculptor, and poet (born 1948), who has been living in Germany since 2010. I graduated from the St. Jozef Pedagogical Academy in Zeist, NL (1971), and the Academy of Fine Arts in Amersfoort, NL (1973–1983). Later, I obtained a PhD in Social Sciences from Utrecht University (1998). I worked as a researcher and manager at the Dutch Institute for Curriculum Development (SLO),. I am an Emeritus Professor of Curriculum Studies at the University of Twente, NL.
My artwork has been exhibited in the Netherlands and Germany, and is held in private collections across the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, Scotland, the USA, and Canada.
In 2020, a large solo exhibition was held at museum ‘De Wieger’ in Deurne, the Netherlands.

Ruthless self-portrait
I am visiting
myself tonight,
not so inspiring
at first sight,
an empty glass
and little light.
I secretly check
my watch to see,
whether I stayed
long enough
to flee.
