Born and based in Austria, Tillman Kaiser is a painter and sculptor who plays with abstraction and found materials. As a student of Friedensreich Hundertwasser at Vienna’s Academy of Fine Arts in the 1990s, he drew inspiration from Surrealism, admiring the work of Giorgio de Chirico and René Magritte. His practice is concerned with the relationship between conscious and subconscious processes, layering images and forms with a particular focus on rhythm, symmetry and syncopation. Included in the Saatchi Gallery’s 2019 exhibition Kaleidoscope, the present work is an example of his early silkscreens, using images of characters from Nigerian soap operas arranged into swirling abstract patterns. ‘It is all quite chaotic, like images popping up in a dream’, explains the artist. Kaiser has exhibited widely throughout Europe, mounting solo shows at the Museo Canonica at the Villa Borghese, Rome in 2016, and the Secession, Vienna last year.

The canvas, stretcher and attachments appear to be in generally good condition. There is some minor rubbing to the extreme corners. There is a slight canvas draw to the upper corners. There is some creasing and surface irregularities and light skinning in places to the paper, presumably in keeping with the artist's working method. Subject to the foregoing, it is our view that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
