Michael Sherman braucht schwarze Tinte und handgeschöpftes Büttenpapier für seine Impressionen der Stadt- und Landansichten. Mit leiser Kraft und Ausstrahlung sind die Werke erstmals in der Ausstellung opus landscape vom 2. Juni - 3. Juli 2010 zu sehen.
I am a painter and my work focuses on traditional values in contemporary art. I am currently working on a series of straight forward yet subtle vignettes of the enigmatic city. Through studying the elements of the visible reality, colors, forms, and volumes I strive to create harmonious and highly crafted images of a quiet city. I am preparing new works for several shows in the coming year including my first show in Switzerland at mitart gallery in Basel.
Michael Sherman ist 1981 in Whitehall Ohio USA geboren. Er lebt und arbeitet in Brooklyn NY
