About the Item
Step into a visionary world where colorful urban landscapes unfold on a canvas like no other, as German artist Thitz takes the art world by storm with his breathtaking city scenes painted upon recycled paper bags. Welcome to a realm where creativity, environmental consciousness, and positive aspirations intertwine in a harmonious symphony of colors, energy, and hope for a brighter tomorrow.
Thitz is a highly sought-after German artist renowned for his original bag artworks. Celebrated for his extraordinary ability to reimagine landscapes and city scenes, Thitz has ingeniously pioneered a groundbreaking artistic technique that has captivated art enthusiasts worldwide. In a remarkable display of creativity and resourcefulness, Thitz masterfully incorporates recycled luxury shopping bags into canvases that transcend conventional boundaries. Thitz's unique artistic approach breathes life into city scenes found during his travels.
This original 40-inch high by 32-inch wide mixed media painting is created with acrylic paint on top of repurposed shopping bags that have been adhered to the canvas in such a way that the bag handles extend from the sides of the artwork. It is stretched, wired, and ready to hang. The artwork is signed on the front and back. The sides are painted as a continuation of the artwork. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included.
The technique employed by Thitz is as unique as his message, where each paper bag is carefully opened out flat to maximize coverage. The bag handles expand beyond the canvas. Utilizing acrylics with remarkable finesse, he breathes life into the landmarks he depicts. The result is an awe-inspiring portrayal of cityscapes bursting with vibrant primary colors, brimming with a lively assortment of people, symbolizing the spirit of unity and harmony.
Thitz's artistic journey has been an ardent exploration of the concept of Utopia, an endeavor that spans an impressive twelve years. His art is an expression of boundless optimism, acting as a beacon illuminating the way toward a better world, one free from the clutches of climate change.
Thitz's artistic vision transcends geographical boundaries, bringing to life the most prominent locations around the world. From the iconic skylines of metropolises to hidden gems nestled in quaint corners, his artwork immortalizes the essence of diverse urban landscapes.
He studied at the National Academy of Fine Arts Stuttgart finishing in 1989 and then continued his studies at the Facultad de Bellas Artes Universidad de Barcelona in 1990. He created his first bag paintings in 1987. Thitz's positive visions of the future are an invitation to embrace positivity and hope for a future that knows no bounds. In a world seeking inspiration, his art stands as a testament to the power of creativity and its potential to ignite a flame of transformation in our hearts and minds. His highly detailed original artworks have been exhibited and collected worldwide, including numerous highly regarded art galleries, art fairs, and museums.
