GOTTFRIED MAIRWÖGER
Gottfried Mairwöger studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna under Josef Mikl and Wolfgang Hollegha in the 1970s. The urge to paint and color was a central need for Mairwöger from the beginning of his artistic career. While his works initially take a very simplified approach to the subject matter, over time they develop into pure abstraction. His compositions have a two-dimensional emphasis. Work is carried out in several shifts. A special quality of Mairwöger’s painting is his handling and experimentation with color. The choice of color, its luminosity and the interaction with the other color layers are decisive. The exhibition features oil paintings on canvas and works on paper by the artist.
