About The Artist


Born in Cologne, Germany, Weber started in 1968 his artwork initially with paintings and assemblage sculptures. Since the 1980ies he attended primarily to photographic artwork. Source to his photo works is the world's visible reality as it is. Nature as well as human activities are all in all an endless domain of endemic art basics. His particular feature is to discover, select and process the intrinsic essence from the huge diversity and variety of forms, substances and situations with a discrete power of attraction to be converted into creative artwork. Only a different view on even well known items is able yet to provoke this specific quality of art. Wilfried Wiegand calls this the 'detected beauty' which has been already existing but has to be bared and recollected. It needs no particular expertness to get access to this kind of artwork, but rather to perceive it subjectively by the respective sentiments of the beholder. In this sense his artwork wants to touch people and at the best to fascinate and to inspire. Visitors to his website are welcome, see www.pjweber.de/home.html
