Weißer Mohn
NORBERT GLADIS
Artist Statement
Born in Wittenberg (town of Martin Luther) on the first of November 1956. Already at school he discovered painting as an important part of communication with life.
He finished his professional training as decorator, script and graphic painter. He passed his final examination after taking evening classes.
During his study years he looked for ways to find his identity. His wish for identity hasn't always been in agreement with the interests of society, which led to difficulties in the socialistic state of the German Democratic Republic (East Germany). In 1986 he got his diploma in writing and graphic workmanship and also started to create wood and jewelry designs. Most of his paintings since 1986 are on display in the region of Thuringia, Germany. His works show the truth/reality of time - vision - nightmares and life experiences in a surrealistic way. These are pictures which do not always fit into a normal frame - you can't comprehend them completely. In every mood one discovers something new. The viewer can judge for himself.

PLEASE NOTE:
We are currently rebuilding our website with a new theme - so temporarily this site is functional, but a construction zone.
Headers, background and certain special new functions will be built in, respectively changed. Additionally, most Slide Shows used to be embedded from our Private Social Network on Ning. Since Ning discontinued Flash some time ago, the space where the embedded slide shows supposed to be is blank!
We are working to fix this as well, but with over 500 pages for artists alone, this will take time.
