Betty Boop beim Meditieren , auf Dollarscheinen, mit dem wohl ewig gültigen Sinnspruch "Let that shit go". Das Bild ist eine Collage, das heisst die "Geldscheine" wurden auf die Leinwand geklebt, darauf dann die weltberühmte Comicfigur mit Sinnspruch gemalt.
Zu meiner Arbeit: ich bin Künstler, meine Bilder werden natürlich mit Rechnung verkauft und sind alles Unikate. Die Preise sind recht niedrig, da ich finde dass sich jeder Kunst leisten können sollte. Bei Fragen/Wünschen einfach mailen.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Acrylic

Paint using traditional pigments mixed with synthetic resins.

Collages

Collage is an artistic creation technique that consists of making a plastic creation by combining elements of various kinds: more or less flat materials, such as printed oilcloth, painting or drawing, newspaper extracts with text and photos, paper paintings, documents, various objects of low relief, etc. When the creation incorporates elements in relief, one can also speak of assemblage. This also includes glued papers, which employ a variety of papers, including newspaper, and drawing techniques.

Outsider Art

Invented by Jean Dubuffet (1901-1985) in 1945, the idea is to create works with primitive graphics that take no academic reference into account. He will also advise to "draw like a child" and encourage self-taught artists.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Christian Berger, a contemporary Austrian[...]

Christian Berger, a contemporary Austrian painter, is known for his distinctive contributions to the realm of pop art, with a particular focus on commercial themes inspired by comics and cartoons.

With a rich background spanning over 25 years as a full-time illustrator and cartoonist, Christian Berger has witnessed the evolution of his craft. Having predominantly worked on a Cintiq screen, he acknowledges that this digital medium has somewhat distanced him from the tangible connection to pen, paper, and the tactile nature of traditional drawing. However, a pivotal moment emerged when a friend requested an illustration featuring Snoopy and Woodstock on a Vespa. This project sparked a newfound enthusiasm, leading Christian to explore the realms of spray painting on canvases.

Christian Berger's artistic style is a fusion of Cartoon, Comic, and Pop Art, manifesting in vibrant and dynamic compositions that capture the essence of commercial themes.

Acknowledging the influence of prominent figures in the art world, his inspirations include Ibanez, Sokol, Deix, Helnwein, Liechtenstein, Warhol, and Banksy. These influences contribute to the diverse and eclectic nature of his creations.

Among his favorite characters, Fred Clever and Jeff Smart hold a special place, embodying the essence of Christian Berger's artistic preferences and thematic choices.
