Grauer explores the construction of identity, and how to memorialize objects and individuals through a contemporary documentarian approach to painting. Examples of the present becoming the past so quickly, he focuses on the documentation of time, memory, and imagination and how he may occupy the past, present, and future through these aspects. He is interested in the observation of that evolution of time and how it affects the artifice of the presentation of self, and finally, how by creating a painting, the art acquires an identity and timeline of its own. Grauer has garnered success showing work internationally, including being awarded residencies at Saltonstall, Jentel, Blue Mountain Artist Residency, and shortlisted for the Wells Art Contemporary Award. Grauer has exhibited with the Royal Society of Portrait Painters at the Mall Galleries in London and the Salmagundi Club in NYC. He is showing with several galleries throughout the Hudson Valley and continues his practice of art and happiness.
