Friedrich Danielis ist ein Solitär in der öster­re­ichis­chen Gegen­wart­skun­st. Das Erfassen von The­men in Bildzyklen ist ein Charak­ter­is­tikum des Kün­stlers. He was inter­est­ed in chang­ing and mod­i­fy­ing an ongo­ing basic theme. Thus, with­in a cycle of paint­ings, well thought-out com­po­si­tions were cre­at­ed in which forms and struc­tures were con­stant­ly var­ied anew and in which his pas­sion for dif­fer­ent tech­niques and mate­ri­als, whether in paint­ing or draw­ing, was always vis­i­ble. The exhi­bi­tion fea­tures pas­tels and gouach­es on paper, as well as egg tem­pera works on can­vas, includ­ing from pic­ture cycles of Mozart and Mahler.

The artist, born in Bangkok in 1952, has been work­ing con­tin­u­ous­ly on work blocks in small for­mat for years. On the one hand, he com­pos­es col­ored sur­faces with pig­ments on the paper primed with beeswax. The sec­ond group of works com­pris­es reduced black and white pic­ture compositions.

Suvat grad­u­at­ed from the Uni­ver­si­ty of Applied Arts in Vien­na. Since 1983 the artist has par­tic­i­pat­ed in numer­ous exhi­bi­tions and exhi­bi­tion par­tic­i­pa­tions in Aus­tria, Ger­many and Italy. Suvat lives and works in Vienna.
