Discover the contemporary work of Herbert Wiedergut
Dr. Herbert Wiedergut, also known as [herb-art], was born in 1949 in Klagenfurt am Wörthersee, Austria. He worked for many years as both a doctor and an artist at home and abroad. His love of oil painting began at the age of 15 while attending high school in Tanzenberg with Prof. Hetzendorfer. At that time he had already taken part in his first group exhibition in his home town of Feldkirchen in Carinthia. This was followed by his first sales and commissioned works. Despite his medical studies and his work as a doctor, his passion for painting has always accompanied him. Since 1996, [herb-art] has devoted himself increasingly to painting in countries such as Germany, Canada, Austria, South Africa and Turkey. His artistic career has been shown in numerous international exhibitions. In 2022, he finished his medical work as a doctor and is now devoting himself entirely to his artistic career again.
"Seeing is a creative act of consciousness, the content of which the artist makes accessible to the viewer through his works."
"This also applies to inner vision and thus to the images that have their origin in the deep experience of situations and feelings, as well as in the silence of meditation.
The source of seeing is therefore the individual form of consciousness of each person."
"The artist has the grace to make the "invisible" visible and to trigger a resonance in the viewer of his works."
