Painting by Menno Bauer from 1995.
The oeuvre of Menno Bauer (1949-2023) is characterized by a lyrical expressionist style. Bauer initially began as a photographer, producing reportages for various magazines, among other things. In the late 1970s, he transitioned to painting. Bauer drew from art history for his compositions, but also found inspiration in ballet choreography and stage design. Later, ordinary street scenes and people and their love affairs also became popular subjects.
