Fred-Jürgen Schiele

As a young man Schiele did an apprenticeship as a photographer in Hamburg, but since it was commercial photography and did not match his inclinations, he photographed only sporadically for many years. Some drawings and watercolours were made in the meantime.
In recent years, as digital photography gained momentum and the partial digitalisation of art, he became more involved again.

Schiele started taking pictures again and experimented with macro photography and landscapes. He found that macro photography and its details exerted a fascination that is completely hidden from the normal view with the naked eye. Schiele also modified and worked with the use of old lenses, or even projector lenses. This creates often an exciting bouquet, which is not possible with normal lenses or it can only be created digitally afterwards.

In the course of his work,he also came across dilapidated objects, plants and objects that were already in a state of advanced decay. This has a special charm in his eyes and a beauty that does not exist in most people's eyes when viewed superficially and yet it is there. Some of his works reveal this beauty and the appeal of age and decay.

Another field of Schiele's artistic interest is the digital modification of erotical drawings or normal photographs. He very often find it a balancing act between a blissful symbiosis or a cruel incompatible smear.
