About 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.
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, spurt".
The giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format printout on an inkjet printer with special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The colours are fade-proof, i.e. resistant to harmful UV light. They have a high richness of nuance, contrast and saturation.
The giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade and watercolour paper as well as for silk.
