The formula for the success of the Umschlagplatz art sales fair can actually be summed up quite simply. A considerable number of artists from all over Germany and the nearby region, more than forty to be exact, will be showing their art up close and offering it for sale on September 25 and 26 on the premises of Kaiser & Goebel Porzellan in Bad Staffelstein.

Biography
After finishing my education I spent time mostly in travel: Ukraine, Poland, Georgia, Spain, Italy - lots of countries. I met with people, their stories, local myths, and legends. It was so inspiring - I started to write books and poetry.
But it was not enough: images, shapes, and memories urged me to return to painting, and so I did.
I like history, myths, and legends - all of it inspires me to paint. But most of all I like emotions - our regular daily life is a diverse mix of different feelings. Love, joy, desire, sadness, and many others - all of them I try to catch and then express through colors and balanced harmonious forms. I use a palette knife and try to express emotions in fast large strokes so I do not lose the feelings and visions they have brought. I never plan ahead color variations and shades and I do not sketch faces since sketches are useless with very thick layers of paint. For me, painting is living and spontaneous process and clean improvisation.
I'm still trying new styles, forms, and subjects. I'm trying to mix different styles that are commonly considered "incompatible" so I rarely work with only one painting at a time, and I hardly have a day without painting something. This everyday work and colorful fantasies, to my pleasure, have been noted and now I'm proud to name the places I have or had exhibitions: Paris, Rome, New York, Aix-en-Provance, Lyon, Miami. I hope to make this list longer.
I hope you can see something in my art that can attract and inspire you as it does to me.
