Eberhard Havekost (1967 - 2019) — Auction price
Eberhard Havekost is a German painter.
Havekost studied at the Dresden Academy of Art. Working from his own collection of photographs and videos, he reworked the original images on the computer: slightly changing the shades, subtly stretching and distorting the shapes. These transformations were then embodied in the drawing process, and the result is not photographic precision, but rather fleeting moments of abstract perception. Havekost often depicted modernist urban buildings as a means of referencing 20th century post-war politics and failed utopian visions. Hafecost also painted portraits and domestic paintings.
In 2010, Havekost was appointed professor of painting at the Academy of Fine Arts Düsseldorf. His work has been exhibited at major German and international institutions and is represented in numerous institutional and private collections.
