About the Item
The painter was born in Austrian, but grew up in Munich and died in 2006 at the age of 77. He was an outstanding personality, atypical in the German art landscape. He started on the path of Expressionism (among his teachers was Oskar Kokoschka) with visions of a life of catastrophes.
In later years he developed a distinctive style, which he maintained except for a few minor changes. The figures are delimited by a sweeping line, their colouring is of the utmost purity, but they have not a decorative function but a symbolic one. Male and female figures fill the space, the archaic mask-like faces with enigmatic hollow eyes, like loopholes. Baumgartner now looks for inspiration in ancient Greece of the Dionysian festivals and the Elysian mysteries and, in contrast, in classical tragedy. His art, exercised in the modern intensity of acrylics, now remains mythical, an exemplary expression of the human experience.

She completed her painting studies at the Institute for Fine and Media Art at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna in Johanna Kandl’s class. In her series of works, Elena Steiner examines a different type of person, sensitizes the viewer, confronts him with the uncompromising demasking of his own world and that of the portrayed by violating the illusion-bearing canvas surface. She creates realistic acrylic paintings as metaphors for being and appearance. The injuries in the form of seams, stitches and stitches are the epitome of traditional female role fulfillment. Elena Steiner deals with the questions of the value of fulfilling external wishes, social recognition and self-determination. Her works experiment with the border areas between painting, object, real exhibition space and imaginative spatiality and thus offer a captivating game be-tween closeness and distance, between impenetrable closeness and revealing familiarity.
