Klaus Bittner is working in the fields of painting, drawing, installation, objects, land-art, photography and digital-art. Studios in Frankfurt / Germany and in Bages / France. Since 1971: 44 solo exhibitions in Germany, France, Italy, Spain, USA 74 participations in exhibitions and art projects in Germany and foreign countries. Artistic conception: The Variable Reaction. This conception means a strategy to avoid a recognizing continuity (principle of mobility). This strategy is focused against an esthetical setting, the persisting in a position and the pressure of the market to identify. It is not the goal to create art with a trade mark or a market sign, which can be recognized at once as well as a lifelong created personal style. It is rather the aim to keep a creative variety which is elevating the variation of expression. The Variable Reaction means an artistic work as an experimental way which is posed in opposition to perfection. More information: www.atelier-bittner.de Read More
