ERWIN BRAHE
|
| BIO |
Born in 1941. After obtaining an MA at the Academy of Art in Krakow, the early period of Erwin Brahe's work was centred on graphic art, including for commercial purposes. A second period of work began in the early 1980ties, using oil on board with a focus on industrial landscapes. Several exhibitions of this work followed over the years in Europe. In 2002, Brahe began exploring the opportunities offered by the computer as a medium for art, using basic drawing programmes to create black and white graphic art, with the mouse as a drawing tool. Later he moved to electronic full colour graphic art, using the mouse as a drawing tool. Some of the electronic works displayed here by  are the result of Brahe's repeated travelling in Japan, which was partially supported by a grant from the Foundation. |
