"Fine-Arts" prints on paper
It is a process of printing on art paper using very high-quality pigment inks and printed in very high definition. Its level of conservation is exceptional (more than 100 years), its quality, depth, and richness of nuances exceeds the classic photo print on Argentic paper.
Glossy finish
Apart from its exceptional thickness, the fiber paper is composed of an alpha-cellulose base without acid and it is covered with barium sulphate, and a microporous layer absorption enhancing pigments during printing. A pure white color, non-yellowing to light, this paper is especially designed for resistance and aging. It is used by major museums worldwide as it offers excellent resolution, rendering deep and dense colors.

Do artistic creators in the 21st century have the exclusive task of making the beautiful, pleasing, decorative and apolitical the subject of their art products? Art as a lifestyle attribute for home furnishings? Or do the man-made catastrophes of the present demand that political processes be critically accompanied? The artist as a seismograph for disaster?
Politicians are incessantly creating narratives with pictures and words that serve their own interests. They manipulate their voters in a targeted manner with iconic self-presentations. The artist Franz Huempfner takes up these pictures and text phrases and responds to these pictures with a critical counter phrase. Here he uses the colors of Andy Warhol from his dollar graphic screen print in the style of pop art.
Former American President Trump liked to stage himself as an ardent patriot with the slogan "make america great again" on his cap. He repeated this slogan countless times during his presidency as if brainwashing his supporters. Franz Huempfner uses the suggested patriotism of the original photo in an abstract form together with dollar notes on which like a satirical illustration the head of the president can be seen. In fact, Trump underwrote the checks issued to the distressed American people in the wake of the Corona crisis with his signature. The abstracted press image with its associated narrative is placed in a new context together with the banknotes.

Franz Hümpfner is a well-known photographer. He always tries to convey the reality hidden behind the visible world through his photographs. For him, a camera is a tool for his artistic work, similar to how a painter uses brushes and paint to create his works.
He employs both analog and digital techniques. "A photograph requires the feel of paper," he says, adding that "the fleeting representation on the screen cannot convey the sensual quality of a photograph." He also creates Zen or Wabisabi photography, which can express themes such as the beauty, transience, and imperfection of everything that exists particularly well due to its simplicity. He also discussed this type of photography theoretically in his book "Photoartfolio 1 - Wabi Sabi Photography."
According to Franz Hümpfner, "A limited edition print has the same artistic quality as an open edition photograph. A photograph with artificial limitations has the quality of a stock that is speculating on rising value." This is the reason why he offer his photography in an open edition.
