Andreas is a long-time friend of the Eder family. He is one of today’s surrealists and has caused a worldwide sensation with his imposing, oversized steel constructions. You may recognise the giant spider at the Kristallhütte or have already spotted our giant beetles and butterflies in the garden, at the bar and in the Green Lounge in the coolnest. Born in Valencia/Venezuela in 1969, he is a versatile artist who has been enriching the art world with his impressive creativity and passion as both a sculptor and a painter since the age of 20. His painting is a rich symphony of colour, emotion and astonishing technical finesse. He used to show his masterful ability in photorealistic and surrealistic styles, where he blurred the boundaries between dream and reality. Today he has embarked on an exciting journey of creative evolution, painting in a mesmerising mixed media pop art style. His works reflect Furtwängler’s deep observation of society, while at the same time he works with playful imagination and a touch of irony. The Pop Art aesthetic serves as a language for him to break up and reorganise the world around him into vivid fragments, holding up a mirror and inviting the viewer to look beyond the obvious. Since becoming a member of the Landesverband Bildender Künstler in 2009, Andreas E. Furtwängler has established a significant presence in the art community. His works have been shown in various exhibitions and galleries, inspiring and delighting a wide audience. Find out more in this cool video edit about Andi Furtwaengler.
