Art Forum Graz -

Gerhard Pilz

Gerhard Pilz G.F.E. is stimulated by the confrontation of landscape and the human body. His works circle that theme. Landscape as an earth connected term and landscape visible in the human body. Man is moving in this landscape and comes to terms with it. No 'artificial-intellectual' explanation is sought, man and his environment are evident.
