Johannes Jacobus (Joop) Beljon was a Dutch sculptor, lithographer, and artist. He is well-known for his work as an environmental artist, often collaborating with architects on public projects in the Netherlands and internationally, including works in Mexico, Bahrain, and Israel. From 1957 to 1985, he served as the director of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in The Hague (Koninklijke Academie van Beeldende Kunsten), during which time the academy received its royal title. Beljon also worked under the pseudonym Bernard Majorick (or B. Maverick). He was a student of sculptor Theo van Reijn and won the Wilhelminaring in 1998 for his sculpture work.[1,2]
