René Tosari
René Tosari è stato attivo in Suriname fino al 1990. Nel 1983 ha fondato il collettivo di artisti Waka Tjopu. È considerato uno dei più importanti artisti grafici del Suriname. Negli anni '70 e '80 il suo lavoro era politicamente impegnato. Il realismo sociale e il suo impegno sociale costituivano un'ispirazione diretta per il suo lavoro. Accanto a questo René crea un lavoro più indiretto e simbolico in cui il suo stile è più libero, più complesso e fantasioso. I suoi dipinti sono caratterizzati da una tecnologia auto-sviluppata, una combinazione di acrilico e pittura ad olio, che applica a umido in diversi strati. Dal 1990 al 2013 ha vissuto e lavorato nei Paesi Bassi anche se era regolarmente in Suriname. Dal 2013 vive e lavora ancora in Suriname.
