generated since 1997 Gerhard Mantz large-format landscape print with the computer. It only seems they are inspired by nature, because Mantz has not at all true to life replicas in closer inspection turns out to be the foliage of a plant even as a rather abstract hatching. Mantz waives any and all current references. He also switches between wide-and close-up view of central perspective or an all-over composition. The simulated deep forest or the banks entering into the background landscape in which one can literally get lost, forcing the viewer to take even a point of reference. His paintings look like the work of German Romantics like Caspar David Friedrich, both in terms of shot composition and the use of colors.
