Riassunto

On the occasion of his 70th birthday, a look back at the career of inspired and inventive watercolorist Gottfried Salzmann. For decades Gottfried Salzmann has been taking the art of watercolor painting to exciting and original levels. In his countless urban landscapes of New York, San Francisco, and Paris, Salzmann combines watercolors with acrylic and pencil or pen, or incorporates photography and printmaking into the finished piece. This retrospective volume offers an overview of Salzmann’s oeuvre. Although he works in other media, Salzmann considers himself a watercolorist first, preferring to champion the medium’s flexibility, transgress the narrow notions of its application, and build bridges to the domains of other visual arts. As a result his collage-like paintings offer a window into the urban life that inspires his work.
