Gerhard Ausborn
Gerhard Ausborn was a German painter. He studied painting at the Hamburg University of Fine Arts.
Landscapes, ancient sites and modern cities characterise the subject of Gerhard Ausborn's paintings. In parallel, he creates abstract compositions without objects.
The paintings are inspired by impressions the artist gathered during his numerous journeys to many countries around the world. The paintings were not created on location, but always afterwards in his Hamburg studio. They are not intended to be an exact copy of reality, but rather, in memory, what is seen is reduced to the essentials and combined with the artist's own ideas, sensations and experiences.
