Bau Sculpture

1961 born at Munich, living and working at Munich and Rome

Markus Schlees vision of art is an universal one. So he realizes his ideas in his artwork in paintings, sculptures, installations, conceptual art, photography and design. Having used for long time exclusively abstract forms, colour fields and raw materials he is turning now to introduce figurative and illusionistic elements in his work too. His great inspiration is the idea of arcady and he is trying to create objects which can give an impulse for the imaging of this philosophical topos, for example the colour field paintings of the girl characters, the installation "arcady research project", the serie of photography "the reality of the myth". Markus Schlees works ar showing a very intense dialogue with the material of realization too, so that the objects do not remain only realizations of an idea, but becoming beings with an own story too.
