S h o r t B i o

Peter Gartz born 1934 in Berlin, living and working in Hamburg (Germany) received his early drawing lessons by Gerhard Stengel, a master of the renowned Leipzig School and studied Fine Arts in Hamburg. His artworks are the result of an intensive observation and excellent craftsmanship. The old master of drawing is able to catch the sublime, when the reality appears to a state of suspension and dreaminess.

A r t i s t S t a t e m e n t

Peter Gartz is a great story teller, when he creates scatches of landscapes or female portraits. Most of his models are living in his familiar personal environment. In contrast to the glossy media world he never acts voyeuristic or narcissistic, neither aestheticizing nor retouching. From this point of view the old master work is quite fresh and contemporary. In opposite to the current hype of selfi cult, the motives mirror diversity, playing with multiple identities.
