Roel Jeroen van der Linden (1982, NL) is a contemporary artist based in the Czech Republic since 2014. His work moves between sustained, long‑term series and large‑scale conceptual undertakings. Van der Linden is widely recognized for his ongoing cycle of self‑portraits, a project that has accompanied his practice for more than two decades, as well as for his monumental linear paintings, including the Czech record‑holding work measuring 1067.7 meters. In recent years he has developed the Un Real landscapes, a body of paintings that merges observation, memory, and subtle distortion to explore the tension between the familiar and the imagined.
Alongside his studio practice, Van der Linden is represented by Rosie’s Gallery, is the founder of the Lípa Art Collection, and co‑owns Galerie Luxfer. His activities span artistic production, curatorial work, and collection building, reflecting a sustained engagement with the cultural ecosystems of both the Czech Republic and the Netherlands.
