Uwe Wittwer

description
The lavishly illustrated volume invites readers into Wittwer’s world, where his technique beautifully complements his themes of visual truth and cultural reflection. While many artists use watercolour as a preparatory tool, Wittwer elevates it to stand on par with his oil paintings. References from art history, personal and familial topics, cinematic influences, colonial themes, and the impact of war characterise Wittwer’s decades-spanning work. His compositions often symbolise the erasure and loss caused by war, a highly topical subject.
