Georg Pinteritsch

Lentos is presenting the first solo museum exhibition of the Austrian artist Georg Pinteritsch (*1986). His works display an unmistakable visual language: Art-historical symbolism, Christian iconography and elements of our everyday visual culture are interwoven into seemingly surreal narratives. Fundamental themes of human existence form the heart of his oeuvre and reveal intimate pictorial spaces in which the past, present and future coalesce to create an intricate whole. His paintings, drawings and objects bear witness to his heightened awareness of social issues, such as the relationship between man and nature or the impact of technological developments on our forms of perception. In addition to works produced in recent years, Georg Pinteritsch, who studied painting and graphic art at the University of Arts Linz, will be showing new pieces for the exhibition that provide an insight into his current artistic creations.
