Pat Andrea was born in 1942 in The Hague, Netherlands. He is the son of the illustrator Metty Naezer and the painter Kees Andrea.
From 1960 to 1965, Pat Andrea studied at the Royal Academy of Art, The Hague, where he was a student of the painter Co Westerik. Along with Walter Nobbe and Peter Blokhuis, he founded the ABN Group (from their initials: A ndrea, B lokhuis, N obbe ). They came to be associated with the Nieuwe Haagse School.
In 1977, Jean Clair invited him to participate in the exhibition La nouvelle subjectivité in the Paris Fall Festival, along with Jim Dine, David Hockney, R. B. Kitaj, Raymond Mason, and Olivier O. Olivier.
He traveled to Latin America and settled in Buenos Aires, where he remained for several years. From 1989 he started to make sculptures in bronze.
Pat Andrea teaches at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
Locating himself between Francis Bacon and Balthus ("entre Bacon et Balthus"), Pat Andrea has developed a figurative painting style depicting an ambiguous and murky universe.
