* Dr Ulrich Perret, Website: "art.perret.de",
graduate mathematician, full-time as such until 2004, then fulltime artist
* In part-time:
* 1983-1986: concert singer of art songs, accompanied by conductor
Uj of the Wiesbaden Opera, ending with beginning deafness.
* 1991-2000: Fresco painter: Main work was the giant fresco in the
new entrance tower of the State Museum for natural history, Mainz.
* 1993-1995: Founder of a citizens' initiative against the architectural
disfigurement of Wiesbaden. Big projects in the center were prevented.
* 2002: Creation of an experimental program package (in Java) for
"Random architecture". Defined parts of a construction are to be codetermined
by a random generator. Picture #247 in "art.perret.de" shows an example.
* 2002-now: paintings in a very own style and varied in subjects.
* techniques:
These are very special, mostly used: Diluted acrylic colors and pigments form
controlled puddles on the horizontal plate and dry . This is repeated locally
several times. Often contours are finally enhanced a bit.
* Story:
Each picture is a small individual, described by its "story" in a lyrical
diction, whose appeal is unfortunately lost in an automatic translation.
* Rule:
Although most pictures are figurative, the principle is to show only those
that would please also as mere abstracts, simply by its structures and forms.
* Influenced by:
late romanticism (also in music) , including Art Nouveau, symbolism and Nabis.
Later styles I ignored mostly except of some of the last about 16 years.
* Exhibitions:
Some took place in the own villa and others in an old castle above the rhine.
Also participation in artfairs and exhibition in a gallery.
I enjoy the title of an NAA ("non acknowledged artist"), certainly an honorable title
in view of all that, what is used to be acknowledged.
