Hello Georg! Tell us a little about yourself. How did you become an artist? You started as a musician and radio DJ and came to art in the late 90s as an autodidact. At what point did you decide to start studying painting? Music was my fist way of creative exposure. I was always biased by art, I felt it was hyped and over-rated. At a point, I wanted to prove myself that I can do large scale, color dominated paintings myself. That was kind of an autodidact starting point. Of course, I managed to improve my skills over time, taking courses, doing studies, getting more and more structured, towards my own style - #4letterart. How do you think the experience in the music field influenced the choice of pop art themes in your work and the style of your works? There is a lot in common with music and contemporary art. Both come with a unique perspective on popular culture, value creativity, individuality, and experimentation. But a lot of my inspiration indeed comes from music, lyrics in my mind when painting. Quite impulse driven, these words then landed on the canvas - as the first typographical elements in my artworks. Besides song lyrics, pop art sujets on re-worked vintage record covers still are another strong reference to music in my artworks. In your works, you vary the themes, materials, and techniques. In this way, you are in search of your style or is it a conscious decision? As an artist, I am in a continuous process of re-mixing elements and structures to create something entirely new and unique. A bit like a DJ. Combining digitally created elements with hand-crafted, traditional techniques like screen-printing or archaic color drops creates a contrast and tension that I find very appealing. I do have a clear vision of how an idea should be transformed into a piece of art and in that process, I like the variety of materials and techniques. Not always the result is as foreseeable and often the unexpected opens new perspectives and points of view.

BUT... Drei Buchstaben, die verbinden können und doch Distanz schaffen. Kontrast. BUT… schiebt immer etwas hinterher, relativiert die Dinge, mildert sie ab, weist Verantwortung von sich, verdreht sie manchmal ins Gegenteil. Die Dinge werden verschwommen, in der Wahrnehmung diffuser. Mehrdeutig. Nicht mehr eindeutig. Die Wahrheit wird relativ. Wie die Kommunikation in den Krisen in der Jetztzeit. FAKE BUT REAL BUT FAKE. BUT... (2022) Leuchtbuchstaben, Tuch auf Sockel, ca. 120x80x50cm Zu sehen vom 11.-23 Oktober 2022 im Bürgerhaus Pullach | Heilmannstraße 2 | 82049 Pullach
