Note du spécialiste
Gerd Winner is the other great photo-realist, apart from Richard Estes, in the Domberger stable of artists.
He is particularly interested in urban and industrial spaces, objects and surfaces, such as the present long prospect of Harlem Walls, and produced a number of graphic series on architecture and transport in London and New York, including London Transport, London Docks and New York Times Square.
As a sculptor, Winner worked on several church environments and, together with his wife Ingema Reuter (1939-1998), designed the Haus der Stille ('House of Silence'), as a space of contemplation at the site of concentration camp Bergen-Belsen.
Gerd Winner was born in Braunschweig, Germany, and studied at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Berlin. He lives and works in Berlin and teaches painting and printmaking at the Arts Academy in Munich.
