F. and I met many years ago in New York when he was a young investment banker. This time around, he flew in to Berlin to have his portrait painted. A great honour. We agreed to meet for a photo shoot — and took a couple of friendly selfies afterwards :-).
The first stage of the Klarwein exhibition has been a remarkable success, far exceeding all expectations.
The opening of the Klarwein exhibition attracted a crowd of almost 300 visitors: not only friends and companions of the project, but also many new faces of all ages and from different walks of life.
The Klarwein exhibition has been featured in various national and international media outlets and is also present on Instagram and YouTube.
Ossip Klarwein, the man on the right, is a mysteriously underrated architect.
Here’s some pictures from both my studio in the countryside and from atelier training at the Art Academy in Stroud (Gloucestershire).
