About the Item

Gottfried Salzmann worked on a series of photo collages inspired by the city streets and the urban. In this collage the artist cuts and crops pieces of newspaper, and attaches them to his paper matrix and then proceeds to paint around and on top of the image in black and white. The artist restrains the use of colors to black and white, creating geometric patterns through the assemblage of the cutout paper to resemble skyscrapers in the New York skyline. Gottfried Salzmann , born on 26 March 1943 In Saalfelden near Salzburg in Austria is an Austrian painter. He lives and works in France (between Paris and Vence) since 1965. He studied from 1963 to 1965 at the school of fine arts of Vienne and then, from 1965 to 1968, at the Beaux-Arts of Paris. He exhibited for the first time in 1969 in Salzburg. He paints in watercolor, is also a draftsman, an engraver and a photographer; He sometimes painted on his pictures when he left the watercolor. In 1989, he illustrated by lithographs Situations de New York by Jean-Paul Sartre (edition Les Bibliophiles de France ).
