Itself Friedrich Hundertwasser recognized the luminosity of gold unique and this special effect. Alexander Durek could realize his destination. By utilization different techniques, he set new measures in the oil painting by use of gold. His paintings do not only captivate with detailed faith and precession. The fascination of the paintings for the observer and the balance between shining and light is gorgeous. And so we give this expression a name. What could be better used than ARS AURUM.
