Frank Bauer

This monograph features representative works of Düsseldorf-based artist Frank Bauer from the last ten years. The former master class student of Gerhard Richter displays his painting skills in three classical genres here: landscape, still life and portrait. In addition to the realistic technique displayed in the works, these paintings also share a common origin in photography. All of the photographs come from Bauer himself; many of them have a special personal significance for him. For Bauer, the translation of photography into painting plays a particularly important role - the imperfect shots in particular present him with attractive challenges.
