About Michael Ferner
For Michael Ferner, humour is very important. Born in Salzburg, Austria, in 1969, the painter, draughtsman, illustrator and caricaturist is a master of the brush and colour thus humorous and cheerful works are created by his hand. He delights the art scene with the lightness of his stroke, which is created by blowing the ink across the paper with his breath.
His theme is life. The impression, the fascination of the moment is what counts. very ordinary moments are captured in his art. Aeroplanes, cars, clowns, musicians, sea creatures or, for example, "gammy-legged crows". With a precise observer’s eye, the alienator and humourist puts colour on paper.
He exhibits his paintings in Germany and Austria, but also in England, Dubai and the USA.
This form of presentation comes from the world of professional photographers and exhibition organizers. More and more artists create their works for this aluminium medium in high-tech composite. The metallic surface creates a synthesis with the colours. White areas of the image are shimmering matt-metallic, depending on the light source. They let the picture look classy and puristic. Thanks to the direct colour pigmentation the details are rendered accurately. Alu-Dibond is long-lasting and resistant.
Graphic artwork in the making of which the artist combines at least two graphic techniques.
A one-of-a-kind or unique piece is a work of art that has been personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolours, drawing, etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there exist the so-called "serial unique pieces". They present a series of works with the same colour, motif and technique, manually prepared by the same artist. The serial unique pieces are rooted in "serial art", a type of modern art, that aims to create an aesthetic effect through series, repetitions and variations of the same objects or themes or a system of constant and variable elements or principles.
In the history of arts, the starting point of this trend was the work "Les Meules" (1890/1891) by Claude Monet, in which for the first time a series was created that went beyond a mere group of works. The other artists, who addressed to the serial art, include Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian and above all Gerhard Richter.
