Biography | |
Willi Bauer was born on July 7, 1923 in a small village in Germany. He studied under Prof. Roth in Berlin and Prof. Dellaville in Frankfurt. The fresh, impressionistic style of his paintings won him widespread recognition throughout the art world. His paintings can be found in many private collections in Europe and America. His great range of subject matter he paints so well is certainly the mark of a true artist. No artist of today has been able to capture the same vibrancy; the same outreaching surge of emotion. His ability to take a common subject, filter it through his artistic eye, romance it with his dynamic use of color and his keen sense of perspective and composition this ability lifts Willi Bauer to the unquestioned position of one of the finest living artists. |

Style Impressionism |
 |
An art movement founded in France in the last third of the 19th century. Impressionist artists sought to break up light into its component colors and render its ephemeral play on various objects. The artist's vision was intensely centered on light and the ways it transforms the visible world. This style of painting is characterized by short brush strokes of bright colors used to recreate visual impressions of the subject and to capture the light, climate and atmosphere of the subject at a specific moment in time. The chosen colors represent light which is broken down into its spectrum components and recombined by the eyes into another color when viewed at a distance (an optical mixture). The term was first used in 1874 by a journalist ridiculing a landscape by Monet called Impression - Sunrise. |
