Hans Dieter Zingraff (1947 in Karlsruhe) is a German Artist in constructivism. He was born in Karlsruhe, Germany in 1947 as the son of an electrical engineer. Zingraff showed an early interest in the arts, in particular in trompe-l'œil, the optical illusion technique. [1]

In Spain

In 1972 he moved to Dénia, Spain creating a number of critically noticed works in the surrealist style. He continued to paint purely abstract including architectural still lives in mixed media collage. In 1984 he started experimenting on wood strip images, while conversely, seemingly glued pieces of photography were actually painted. [2]

The 1980s

In the years 1983 to 1985 Zingraff managed a crucial step in the current local art scene. As an absolute novice, in 1983 one of his pictures was selected by the jury of the 50th Salon de Otoño (Asociation of Spanish Painters and Sculptors) in Madrid. After a period of soft lines and shapes, he returned to the hard line. [3]


Zingraff´s Constructivism

From 1996, Zingraff themed the removal of spatial continuity and visual ambiguity radically abstract. This In 1999 he developed his personal style. He brought his compositions now effectively out of the area and out of the traditional format. Depth, volume and lighting are since there no longer painted illusions, but a tangible reality. Wall and space are included in the works, back-mounted lights give real light and shadow. [4] Despite his many exhibitions Zingraff continuously creates new works. In recent years, his works were exposed in New York, Lima (Peru), Madrid, Berlin, artKarlsruhe [5] and Cairo.
