In my self-portrait, created in Dresden, the influence of my role models at the time, Oskar Kokoschka, Siegfried Klotz, and Bernard Heisig, is clearly evident. For the first three semesters in Dresden, I studied under Professor Siegfried Klotz, with whom I share a deep respect, both artistically and personally. My professor Elke Hoppfe was also a wonderful teacher and a fantastic artist.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_9471\" style=\"width: 1671px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-9471\" class=\"wp-image-9471 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1661\" height=\"1200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy.jpg 1661w, https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy-400x289.jpg 400w, https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy-600x433.jpg 600w, https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy-1024x740.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy-768x555.jpg 768w, https:\/\/salalieber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_3757-copy-1536x1110.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1661px) 100vw, 1661px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-9471\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Net | 2004 | Oil on canvas | 140 x 160 cm<\/p><\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In D\u00fcsseldorf, I found my own artistic language best understood and guided by Professor Herbert Brandel.

Bei meinem Selbstportrait, das in Dresden entstand, erkennt man klar den Einfluss meiner damaligen Vorbilder Oskar Kokoschka, Siegfried Klotz und Bernard Heisig. Die ersten drei Semester in Dresden studierte ich bei Professor Siegfried Klotz, mit dem mich sowohl k\u00fcnstlerisch wie auch menschlich eine tiefe Anerkennung verbindet. Meine Professorin Elke Hoppfe war ebenfalls eine wunderbare P\u00e4dagogin und tolle K\u00fcnstlerin. &nbsp; &nbsp; In D\u00fcsseldorf fand ich meine eigene k\u00fcnstlerische Sprache bei Professor Herbert Brandel am Besten verstanden und begleitet. Das Bild &#8220;Das Netz&#8221; entstand in dieser Zeit. Das Bild zeigt Menschen in einem gro\u00dfen Netz gefangen. Sie versuchen dieses Netz auszudehnen und ihm zu entkommen.
