Karl J. Mayerhofer Mayerhofer was born December 21st 1957 in Vienna - Ottakring and he has
been painting since his childhood. With 14 years of age, he wins the ORF
(austrian radio and TV broadcasting Company) youth price and goes to the
"Hoehere Graphische Lehr- und Versuchsanstalt" (Graphical
College) in Vienna, specializing in "Siebdruck". 1984 he moves
with his family to the poet town Kirchstetten, where he, after a few
years of intermission, starts to paint again . He is trying out two
different lines of paintings: the water colors and Indian ink. 1991 he
had his first exhibition. Mayerhofer has a multifarious, creative
fantasy and a very rich world of inner feelings, which he tries to
interpret in paintings and words. He is expressing his fantasy in
pictures, blending in from different motives which the observer shall be
carried in these inner worlds, supported through a special sort of
coloring. Mayerhofer accumulates pictures of human beings, especially
female, animals as well as scenery’s and scenery details illustrations
with this fantasy, let’s free his speculations, sometimes to expose
aesthetics. Some sort of hope, lost yearning, only partly overcome fear,
expresses itself to soul uniting themes in these scenery’s, as well as
in portraits and nature. Obviously his own painful experiences are
projected in these pictures and puts a shine on foreground impersonation.
