Recent Work by California Artist:
For decades Mohr has worked as a
graphic designer and fine artist. He painted, made collages and created
etchings, lithographs and monotypes. In graphics, he designed trademarks and
logos, posters and brochures, developed comprehensive corporate design concepts
and occasionally designed furniture or interiors.
Mohr came to Santa Barbara, California in 1997 to pursue new aspects of art,
to explore new ways of artistic _expression, to experiment with new media and
techniques. When he met the notable ceramist Pat Kenny he instantly was
attracted by this medium and worked very intensively with clay and porcelain.
Mohr's ceramic images play with structure and rhythm, light and shadow or use
the topography of organic forms; his small sculptures are models of larger
visions; his ceramic objects deal with the destruction of geometric forms, some
pierced by metal or wooden elements.
In his recent paintings, Mohr explores different subjects often in thematic
series of four or more while his earlier paintings reflect personal experiences
and memories or express thoughts and views of the moment. They range from fully
abstract to new views of realism. Mohr's collages are uncommon or surrealistic
combinations of colors, shapes and graphic elements from own drawings or
monotypes. They invite you to linger in your own fantasy of interpretation.
Often in Mohr's art you will discover traces of his designer years or his
attraction to letters and numbers.
