Descrizione Opera / Biografia


ARTWORK DESCRIPTION
I paint in acrylic and experiment with mixed media techniques. My paintings are abstract and informal compositions and chance and intuition becomes the impulse generator. Sometimes I’m reacting unconsciously like a seismograph to what happens around me and at events oft he day. ”Black DOllar TRUMPet day” can be interpreted in the context of the presidential elections of Donald Trump. I started painting this picture in December 2016, first as usual with strong colors. And suddenly I recognized that the painting become darker an d darker. Obviously I was very disturbed about what was going to happen in the United States. I finished the painting in January 2017 as often without any title. Somedays later - after the result of the presidential elections in the USA- the painting reopened to me and suddenly I saw a tipped dollar symbol which looks at the same time like a trumpet played by a loudmouth who spreaded awful sounds(=untenable political comments) and the painting received his title.
BIOGRAPHY
I started painting at the end of 2014 and attended classes with the german painter Bernard Lokai (masterclass student of worldwide known Gerhard Richter). In the meantime I exhibited in Germany, Belgium, France, Spain and this year also for the first time in the United States of America.
