Description: The painting reveals its peculiarity on closer inspection. The main character looks like Buddha but the gesture of his left hand is that of Christ in medieval western iconography. Other objects and signs raise questions like the following: Who is the owner of the mitre placed in the foreground casting its shadow over the observer of the scenery? The meaning of the road sign on the right can be "read" by nearly anyone who calls himself a member of a civilization in the 21st century. We learn from the title of the picture that the girl on the left hand side is Alice. She seems to be floating through a wonderland of signs and symbols which allude to ancient and modern, western and eastern myths and mythologies.Medium: oil

When he started studying fine arts in 1986, one of the topics Hallauer particularly focused on was the drawing and painting of the human body placed in different pictural spaces. During study visits to London, Paris and Venice he had the opportunity to draw sketches of paintings by Tiepolo, Tintoretto, Rubens and other painters. Since then his artwork has been influenced by the baroque handling of human figures. However, he developed his very own repertoire which enables him to "play" with every imaginable depiction of human figures in pictorial spaces. Although the figurative works have been dominating until today, abstract paintings have come into being, too. At first sight, Hallauer´s work seems to be divided into three independent work groups: Many images deal with mythological influences, mostly in a more or less ironical manner. Others show nudes and human figures - either „floating“ or surrounded by shapes and colours which might evoke impressions of nature or architecture. Finally, there are the abstract paintings. They are dealing with natural and cosmic cycles, however, avoiding any depiction of visible reality. At second glance, the connecting links between his works are clearly discernible: the distinctive handwriting and the fascination with nature and mankind, captured by shape and colour. Together the works thus show complementary views of the same artistic position. Hallauer lives and works as an artist, art teacher and musician in Saarbrücken, close to the French border. Art lovers from Saarbrücken, Hamburg or Munich, from Saragota Springs, Seattle and Toronto collect Till Felix Hallauer´s works of art.
