Short Biography:
Wolfgang E. Biedermann was born in 1940 in Hannover - dece. 2008 in Leipzig
Already as a high school student Wolfgang E. Biedermann's artistic talent was recognized by Ursula Mattheuer-Neustädt.
She promoted him to evening studies at the Academy of Visual Arts (HGB) Leipzig.
From 1961 Biedermann studied at the HGB in the specialist class for free graphics and painting with Gerhard Kurt Müller, completing his studies in 1967.
Since 1968 Biedermann was active as a freelance artist in Leipzig.
He undertook study trips to Poland, France and Indonesia, as well as to the USSR and the USA.
From 1968 to 1991 he was a member of the Association of Visual Artists of the GDR and since 1996 a member of the Free Academy of Arts in Leipzig.
The unique encounter with the German action artist Joseph Beuys had a great impact on Biedermann.
The artistic work of Wolfgang E. Biedermann spanned from 1960 to 2008.
His œuvre is characterized by the development of his own technique.
In addition to drawings and sketches of the early work for study purposes he dealt over the years primarily with printing practices.
He produced numerous abstract paintings and works on paper using color etching and silkscreen processes as well as multi-plate overprinting.
Biedermann relied on different layering by means of various techniques of graphics and painting.
He dealt extensively with overdrawing and overpainting his works. Repeating motifs are symbols, signs, ciphers and writings, which are based on Asian calligraphy.
Biedermann dealt just as intensively with the content of philosophical writings by Peter Sloterdijk and with letters from the estate of Friedrich Schiller,
which he transposed into the paintings. His color-intensive paintings reflect "inner landscapes". Klaus Werner coined this term as early as 1980 for the complete works of Wolfgang E. Biedermann.
Since 1977 Wolfgang E. Biedermann presented his artworks at various exhibitions.
On the occasion of his 50th birthday, the Lindenau Museum in Altenburg exhibited a comprehensive selection of 130 works in 1990.
NordLB - Art, Hannover accompanied his further creative process for almost ten years with work locations in Berlin (Sony Center), Singapore, Zurich and Hamburg.
At the EXPO 2000 in Hanover, twelve of his large-scale works were on display in the German pavilion.
Parts of his œuvre have also been exhibited outside Germany in Tokyo, Paris, Damascus, Bilbao, Listovel, Mulhouse, Grenchen, Basel and Fredrikstad, among other places.
