Luc Wunenburger

Fresne-Cauverville, France
Artist (Painting, Drawing)
Born 1964
“Everything happens for a reason”

When he started painting in the 1980s, Burger immediately joined the movement born in those years, that of Free Figuration.

Nevertheless and very quickly his freedom of spirit and his fierce artistic independence detached him from any movement whatsoever.

And it’s ultimately a paradox when we know that Burger is the painter of “families”.

Could it be because he was born, in the 1960s, into a large family and grew up among tribes, who in turn became his family, that what is significant in Burger's work is the idea of ​​continuity. The very one that surrounds you and supports you.

And that these works are never isolated but always part of a “series”?

One of the first and surely one of the most emblematic is the one he brought to life at the end of the 90s: "Les POUFFES".
A series of free, independent and happy women painted on linen canvases.

In 2005, a new family was born: "Les PAULO"
The poetic and whimsical family saga of five brothers and their descendants of paper and watercolor.

But for Burger, art is nothing if experienced alone.

This is why in November 2007 he called on the family of artists – whether they are professionals or amateurs – to become the builders of a virtual work.

That of the "Artists Wall" where each of them is a stone in the building and a new member of the other's family.

Again and always join a family!

In 2008, a new series was born: one born from chance encounters and a break in a small neighborhood café. It’s the “Bar People” family.

In 2009, Burger does not plan to stop the demographic momentum of families since he is working on two new series.

One about the women of the Roaring Twenties and the melancholy inspired by the grace of their faces.
And another on the men of the world.

All; series built over the years and which he lets his two children discover. His own family!
