About Michael Becker
Michael Becker's symbioses of nature and femininity.
"Art with pleasure" - this is the motto that Bremen artist Michael Becker has chosen for his work. The graphic artist, illustrator, painter and sculptor creates fantastically surrealistic and figurative symbioses of humans and nature - combined with erotic allusions, irony and humour.
"My art should be fun and aesthetic," he says. "It is not representation, but new creation - making visible what lies behind things. Reality only becomes exciting when one looks at it with imagination."
Becker, born in 1951, initially worked for many years as a graphic designer and began his exhibition activity as an artist in 1994. Becker's imagery is also fantastical in the third dimension and strives for perfected aesthetics. It aims to express beauty in the classical sense. In doing so, his motifs repeatedly bring together the themes of human beings and nature, mostly in depictions of erotic female figures that do not compete with the beauty of nature, but are deeply symbiotically connected to it.
"For me, nature has the essence of a woman, inspiring, fascinating, impressive and full of transformations."
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, to spray".
The Giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format print produced with an inkjet printer using special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The inks are lightfast, meaning they are resistant to harmful UV light. They provide a high level of nuance, contrast, and saturation.
The Giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade paper and watercolour paper as well as silk.
