Biography  Report Missing Data

1931
Born in Berlin (DE)
His parents sent him to England to avoid persecution by the Nazi regime in Germany. Auerbach attended St. Martin´s School of Art from 1948 to 1952 and the Royal College of Art from 1952 to 1955. He is often associated with the artists of the School of London, Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud and Leon Kossoff.
Auerbach´s work is primarily figurative lying in a realm somewhere between pure portraiture and narrative, but with a very expressive use of the texture of paint itself. His subjects rarely change, he has used only three models in his entire career, spontaneity in his work comes from varying the densities of the paint and the color applications. Through the weight of the densely applied color, commonplace becomes grand and subject and paint are unified.
