Ernesto "eto" Colini, painter and poet. Born in 1943 in a train station between Ingolstadt and Neuburg an der Donau. Colini has been active in the Munich art industry for over half a century. In the 1970s he was already a student of the Munich impressionist Friz Hass. In 1978 he founded the gallery for ordinary consumers, with huge success. In 1988 he built and opened the largest exhibition forum in Bavaria, the KUNSTWERK at the English Garden. It had to be abandoned in 1992, however. Then he withdrew from the art market. He had recognized that something had to change in art because of the new, all-encompassing architectural style of modern glass buildings, and he created something new: "STAND Art". It took over 20 years to succeed! It is a "translucent play of colors" that, standing in front of glass fronts, has a positive effect on the people who live and work in modern glass buildings. His painting style ( COLINISM ) can be classified as modern.
