FRICTION SURFACES - primary red - April 2019 - Mixed media, acrylic on canvas Painting

Bernd Czauderna, born and raised in Stuttgart, was interested in modern art at an early age. For him, the works of 20th century pop art artists were particularly fascinating. He was particularly impressed by the colors of British artist David Hockney. Before he devoted himself to painting, Bernd Czauderna first trained as a display designer and then worked in the advertising industry. He later switched to the fashion industry as a freelancer. However, he did not let go of his lust for artistic creation. Inspired by the early impressions, his abstract paintings are today made up of a variety of structures. He works with modeling paste, marble flour, tissue paper, corrugated cardboard, sand, champagne chalk, coffee, stones, ashes and much more on the various substrates. He lives and works near Stuttgart. His studio is located in the picturesque old town of Bad Cannstatt.
