Helmut Grill

Born 1965 in Austria. Wholesale trader, repro photographer, lithographer and photo manipulator - and artist since 1991. As a freelance artist, he has been experimenting with a wide variety of materials in his studio for over 25 years and in this way creates extraordinary sculptures that astonish. In his photographic works, he takes this idea further and combines different image snippets and objects to create new image worlds. These digital alterations give rise to photomontages that are sometimes consciously recognisable as such, in other cases leaving the viewer in doubt. In any case, they are thought-provoking, disturbing or provocative. In his newly created, sometimes paradoxical realities, Grill takes aim at the firmly rooted belief in what we see in his own way. His works can be seen in numerous international exhibitions as well as at festivals and art fairs.
