About the Item
Digital Painting, Lambda Print on fuji crystal archival paper mounted on aluminum dibond, acrylic front.
Wittig's works use photographic techniques in their recording and in print, but they are far removed from photography. In many cases, the proximity to pictorial elements and sophistic graphic effects can be recognized. The achieved complexity, depth, luminosity and color spectra of his pictures are - it is commented - hardly reachable by painting and graphics in the classical sense.

Jens-Christian Wittig
A world of images: Between painting and photography Painted by a Lens
Digital Painting BIO: (JCW) Jens-Christian Wittig was born in Weimar, Germany in 1962 and studied in Dresden from 1983-1989. For more than 25 years, he has been involved in multiple international art, and city planning projects in various countries including Germany, France and Spain. Later projects also brought him to Russia and the Middle East. After winning several international competitions, he was invited to Shanghai in 2001. Here the artist lived and worked for 18 years. His time in Shanghai strongly shaped him as an artist and served as a source of inspiration for projects as well as for his work as an artist.
Wittig followed intensely the rapid development and advances in digital technologies. Step by step, he discovered them as tools for his creativity – just like the pencil, brush and camera of his younger years.
In his images of digital transformation, he works with this new medium to create his specific and unique artistic world, taking learned classical techniques of composition and perspective and bringing them into the digital age.
The works of JCW at the onset and in print are photographic techniques. However, at their conclusion, they are no longer photographs, but rather transformed compositions. Brushwork and sophisticated graphic elements can be seen throughout the images. The resulting complexity, depth, brilliance and range of color of his images would be difficult if not impossible to produce through painting or graphic techniques in the classical sense. His unique and elaborate works are created through complicated and often lengthy digital processing -primarily through the use of a computer.
JCW de-composes the initial material, adds new, complex elements and re-composes – using lacquer painting techniques – to create these expressions in image form.
The images themselves are not important to JCW. For him, the true image is seen only by the viewer. Their imagination and fantasy, their personal interaction with the images and finally, the formation of opinion – positive or negative – this is the “real picture”. That is why the artist offers no explanations or descriptions of his motifs.
Some viewers have been so caught up in the intensity of the images, that they have heard music - an unconscious emotional reaction of the senses underlying the visual…
JCW photographs, draws, then works solely digitally and ultimately creates. He opens the door to a world full of previously unknown and undiscovered beauty - mysterious figures and fantastic scenery with a sense of the familiar. Seemingly well-known details and fragments are mixed with unexpected cascades of color, gold and glitter. Still other images veil themselves, disclosing their secrets bit by bit. JCW allows himself to be equally inspired by the largest form as well as by the smallest pixel; he allows for the free-flow of vibration transforming images into intensely colorful creations. Equally inventor and explorer, he works meticulously and intuitively creating suspenseful and exciting works of art which leave the viewer awed and astonished.
