Soren Grau's artistic acclaim has rapidly expanded on an international scale, attracting a collector base that includes prominent celebrities. In his Neo-Expressionist creations, Grau acknowledges the influence of artists such as Jackson Pollock, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Clyfford Still, drawing inspiration from both their style and attitude. Each artwork he produces is imbued with a combination of personal significance and deliberate ambiguity. Soren Grau is a versatile artist known for working in two distinct styles: Neo-Expressionism and Suprematism.
With cultural icons and world events often acting as
inspiration, he strives to communicate meaning through bold compositions,
figures, and colors. Speaking about his neo-expressionist works, Grau explains “I
know what I have set out to do but the details that come out in the canvas are
an obscured vision of the subject…it’s something you set out to do with passion.”
The pure pleasure of
creating is the driving force behind his painting. He believes that art need
not be complicated and that art is for everyone.
Originating from Denmark,
Grau currently lives in Los Angeles, California. His experience in graphic
design informs his compositions and methodology. However, Grau considers
himself an anti-conformist and finds creating original compositions with
unexpected details very fulfilling.
“Artists put a piece of
their soul into an artwork,” explains Grau. “Art allows you to express your
individuality by creating something unique that is a part of you but can also
be a part of those who see it and experience it.”
Soren Grau’s artworks have
been collected by international companies, including Red Bull, HBO, Toyota, and
FX, as well as by private art lovers and celebrities worldwide. They have been
exhibited at major art fairs such as New York and Hong Kong.
