The devotion of an artist
My experiences
I was born in Zurich in 1957 and studied law at the University of Zurich after my usual school career. For more than 30 years I have been artistically active in various fields. More than 15 years ago I decided to dedicate myself full-time to my artistic career. In addition to running my painting school "Atelier für Kunst und Gestaltung" in Bubikon, I work as a curator, head of courses for cantonal parent education, support school art project weeks, and preparatory courses for further art training, and take Matura exams in the field of visual arts.
Here is a selection of my previous exhibitions 1996-2003 Several solo and team exhibitions in Meilen, Stäfa and Hombrechtikon 2001 Gallery in Embrach2004 Ueriker Kulturtag2007 Gallery Ritterhaus Bubikon2008-2012 Gallery Amtshaus Rüti (team exhibitions)2009 Gallery Vivendi Laupen 2011 Gallery Dosch ZH2017 Team exhibition Gallery Basler ZH2019 Gallery open space ZH2020 Team exhibition KV-RJ Castle Rapperswil2021 Exhibition in M.

Further exhibitions are in planning. Several sales of paintings at home and abroad to private individuals, business houses, banks, and restaurants.
Abstract Painting
Abstract art shows colours and forms that are largely abstracted from absolute and familiar imprints. For each viewer of such paintings, different interpretations arise.
Mixed Artworks
I very often use the mixed form of abstract and concrete painting in my pictures. The viewer's eye is inspired by a certain balance of the two types of art. Despite the concrete engraving, the painting needs an individual interpretation. This gives the painting an interesting, mysterious, mystical component.
Cave Pictures
To substantiate the theses I put forward in the art book "Kunst®evolution", I created a large number of so-called modern "cave paintings" in 2018/2019. For this purpose, I have intensively studied the current state of the art of cave art in advance. By incorporating ancient fragments of cave painting into modern acrylic painting, I build a bridge from the Stone Age to the modern age.
