Frank Bauer's pictures are snapshots of situations which normaly would not leave a lasting
impression on you, in most cases several people meet in a social context...These are people
in their late twenties to middle thirties who might best be described by the wonderful term
"generation 89"...
Frank Bauer potrays representative of this generation, and, in them, he stylizes this generation
and records it for future generations. It is this generation, of which he is a part and in which
he lives, which determines his sujet or rather his genre.
As a painter, Bauer becomes a
contemporary witness. His pictures are painted and not shot; even if they focus on naturalistic,
even photorealistic depictions, despite this endeavour to what is visible...
