Life

After self-taught beginnings, Uwe Bangert attended a private art school in Plön , where Erik Richter was his teacher. From 1950 to 1951 he studied with Alfred Mahlau at the State Art School in Hamburg . Scholarships from the state of Schleswig-Holstein enabled him to stay in Venice (1962), in Rome , in the Ekely artists' colony near Oslo (1964) and in the Cité des Arts in Paris (1966), where he met Mordecai Ardon and Peter Grau .

Right from the start, Uwe Bangert committed himself to meticulous realism , which occasionally gains a magical quality by omitting everything that is distracting . He cultivated the portrait , landscape and still life genres in equal measure, worked mainly in Bad Segeberg , but repeatedly took inspiration from study trips to Italy, Denmark and France. "What we associate with melancholy, with mood, with the poetry of the representational world, in Bangert's pictures and leaves never results from the approximation, but always from the accuracy of the representation. He draws with sharp pencils, paints with fine brushes ... This painter and draftsman demands from himself something as inexorable as Musil's man without qualities . "
