More works by Marc Jung

Marc Jung brings figuratively post-abstract expressionism to the canvas with spray cans, oil and lacquer. Neither purely figurative nor abstract, neither graffiti nor classical painting: Marc Jung's art resists simple pigeonholing. Strongly effective dirty work, such as dripping, opposes the accuracy of forms that sometimes find their way onto the canvas with stencils, but more often by hand. Marc Jung's works fluctuate between the poles of chaos and order. Layer by layer, his works are created. Often the lowest layers are no longer visible at all or only selectively visible as coloured shadows. Never the less they are elementary as the basis for the creation of the works.
/ Marc Jung was born in Erfurt in 1985. His career testifies to the seriousness of his work from the very first moment of his artistic activity. He studied at the Bauhaus University in Weimar, at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna with Daniel Richter and was a master student with Wolfram Adalbert Scheffler at the Academy of Fine Arts in Dresden. His wonderfully loud form of expression on canvas shows the depth inherent in his works impressively and relentlessly.
