A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.—Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

"Мy goal is first and foremost to explore my own limits and possibilities. ARCHITECTURE and DESIGN help me to explore the causal relationships and construction of the material environment we live in, and the FINE ARTS enable me to expand my understanding beyond these material limits ...
Тhe understanding the superficial and sensory environment is gradually complemented by the development of the intuitive and purely creative beginnings. It is a never-ending process that "keeps me on the surface" and at the same time immerses me in a different, parallel reality, filled with symbols and unexpected, sometimes difficult to understand revelations.“
I am not one of the artists who produce paintings... I work a lot on the prima vista, but at the same time I give myself enough time to be able to create the best I am capable of... When I understand Myself, then I can understand the Universe and the Spirit of the Universe.

...The experiment continues ..."

The precise choice of his colors and his meticulous brushwork have earned him the reputation of a perfectionist. These are works that are unsurpassed in density and captivate with their depth.

Petra Marino

Photograph, designer, master architect

Her work has been published in issues of "LIGHT - a journal of photography & poetry", New York, and "Obscura", Sofia.

Robert Lösch

Dipl.-Ing. – Austrian architect, photographer, and fine artist.
2017 – 2018    Master School for Communication and Design: Graphische HBLA, Vienna (Austria)
2015 – 2017    College for Photography and Audiovisual Media: Graphische HBLA, Vienna (Austria)
2004 – 2015    Architecture studies (Dipl.-Ing./MSc): TU Graz (Austria) and Politecnico di Milano (Italy)

Robert Lösch studied architecture at TU Graz and Politecnico di Milano. While working in several renowned architectural offices in Graz, he already participated in art exhibitions, including at the Kunsthaus Graz, the "Friendly Alien."

After completing his studies, he pursued further education in photography, graphic design, and painting. During this time, while partly working as a freelance photographer, he had additional exhibitions at venues such as the Kunsthistorisches Museum, designforum, and the Albertina. In painting, Robert Lösch was particularly influenced and supported by his mentors Wilhelm Drach and Karl Kriebel.
Today, his artistic spectrum spans various media, from painting to photography, videography, and digital forms of representation, culminating in the final spatial experience. Ultimately, the goal is the search, analogous to the experience of the journey in mountaineering – the search for absolute intermediality. An art form that unites all types of artistic creation into a kind of "meta-art."
"Everything is correlated, an interaction that elevates the whole far beyond the sum of its individual elements. Photography, communication design, and architecture form the educational foundation for this intertwining of all elements."

The artist-photograph has participated in several exhibitions in Austria, the United Kingdom, and the USA.

In 2021, Robert Lösch participated in the “Liquid ~ Sky” exhibition at Praxis Gallery in Minneapolis, Minnesota (USA), where he received the Director’s Choice Award for "Distant," a digital photograph.

„Modern Women Images“
"The large-scale, flat works in bold colors predominantly feature women. The artist focuses on staging, using the stereotypical iconography of fashion magazines to depict a society of the third or fourth generation of women who have grown up with role models from new media. This can also be seen as a continuation of tradition. A certain nostalgia is evident. She constructs the images, creating the worlds she needs, either out of longing or as a critical improvement of the existing ones, whether ideologically or formally. Technically impressive, sharp, clean. In the images, a search is conducted between 'I' and 'We,' between the individual and society."
- Tamara Karjuk, art historian and curator of the exhibition "STICK TOGETHER," 2021

Yulia Becker has participated in several exhibitions and Art fairs in Austria, Switzerland, China and South Korea.
