Birkenstämme – dicht nebeneinander gereiht, durchflutet von einer Schar aus herbstlich gelb gefärbten Blättern. So viel Tiefe diese Komposition in seiner abstrakt angehauchten Darstellungsweise auch bietet, lässt sie den Blicken seiner Betrachter dennoch kaum eine Möglichkeit des Auswegs. Die schwarzen, gewundenen Äste tragen ihr Übriges dazu bei. Sie lenken und dirigieren, und helfen so noch mehr in die Landschaft einzutauchen. In die Atmosphäre eines herbstlich gekleideten Birkenwaldes zu entschwinden. Nicht alle Bilder bedürfen einer großartigen Erklärung. Manchmal sollen sie die Blicke ihrer Betrachter einfach nur spazieren führen. “Gelber Herbst” ebenso.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Oil

Paint consisting of pigments bound with linseed oil or carnations. The traditional technique consists of superimposing layers of paint increasingly rich in oil for a solid and durable hanger.

Graphite

Black and white drawing made with a pencil, an instrument made of a small wooden stick used as a sheath for a graphite mine of the same length.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

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.

Günter Leiter, a contemporary Austrian painter, defies the ordinary with his distinctive artistic approach. While primarily working with oil painting, he ventures into experimentation, seamlessly incorporating charcoal, graphite, and pastel colors into his creations. Striving to embody the mantra of "everything but ordinary," Günter diverges from convention by choosing raw linen, instead of a white primed painting surface, as the foundation for his artworks. This unconventional choice harmonizes uniquely with the interplay of oil, charcoal, and graphite in his compositions.

Despite lacking formal art training, Günter Leiter's artistic journey began with doodling using a pencil during his school days. However, color exploration did not come until 2016 when he produced notable works such as "Horny Teddy" and "Motivation for penetration."

Following a hiatus until February 2018, Günter Leiter returned to the canvas with renewed vigor. Juggling his artistic pursuits alongside a professional career demanded time and space, but a change of residence infused him with a fresh burst of energy. It was during this period that he began shaping the distinctive style that now defines his works, making each creation uniquely recognizable as a Günter (Günta). His art, marked by a fusion of mediums and unconventional surfaces, stands as a testament to the artist's unwavering commitment to innovation and creative exploration.
