Christian Sauer

Christian Sauer (born in 1977) is a master student at the Berlin University of the Arts. The city of Berlin plays, in general, a recurring role in his work, which has been honoured by numerous exhibitions.

Sauer's technique of "peinture collée" is unusual. The artist assembles dried acrylic colour particles into representational motifs and works them with a brush. Thus, he achieves quite unusual colour gradients and an enormous graphicness in the expression of the picture.
