Eva Wagner (Salzburg 1967) studied at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna and at the University of Applied Arts Vienna with Markus Prachensky and Arnulf Rainer. In 1995 she was awarded a Bauholding Kunstförderpreis, the predecessor of the STRABAG Artaward. Figurative fragments, which Eva Wagner takes from everyday scenes and impressions of her busy travel schedule blur on her canvases behind dripped or poured traces of color - the selected scenes disappear into the depth of the picture and are interwoven with overlapping, abstract layers, each in a dominant color mood. These abstract overlays settle like a veil over dynamic moments - movement and stillness are in balance.
