Vita
Markus Fräger made figuration his main theme early on. Chance plays an important role in his painterly process: he begins the genesis of a new work by cleaning his brushes - which he had previously used on other paintings - on the empty new canvas. This creates a first painterly layer, which he picks up again in the layers above.
The artist lived and worked in Cologne, where he died on 17 August 2020.
