Holger Bortz

german artist, born 1961

During my studies im hamburg and kiel 1984 - 1990 I worked on classical subjects of painting. Since 1990 more and more I explored the definition of art. My concept of painting used a reduced language to achieve assoziation and evocation. I tried to reflect the background of traditionell painting. Increasingly I was turning from painting to installation and fotographie. Nowadays, returning to painting and digital manipulation, I play with a lot of styles on some basic themes (last landscapes, nekropolis and so on).
