Untitled Serie Electric Light, NO 3

Oliver Lanz uses imagery from the surplus of everyday images to create a colorful, poetic ambience within his paintings. He appropriates film-stills, found imagery and computer generated graphics to create rich abstractions that combine mechanical and organic structures. This engenders the work with a dynamic between the figurative and abstracted elements, with each painting presenting itself as an imaginary and spherical universe of sorts across which the artist traverses with his audience.
