Volker Huller

Born in 1976 in Forchheim, Germany; Hüller now lives and works in Berlin, Germany and Brooklyn, NY.

Hüller is one of Germany’s rising stars - an artist of decorative beauty whose work is full of dark undercurrents. His work concentrates on portrait and landscape prints, made from a process of acid etching and hand application of faded watercolor and shellac. They look at once contemporary in their fragmented, mixed media surfaces and witty cultural references, and historically resonant in echoes of German expressionist uses of the medium.

In his large-format collaged canvases and smaller hand- colored etching, a viewer enters a world where shapes and meaning are fragmented and interconnected to present an eerily abstract sense of portraiture.
