Günther Baechler, an art teacher, painter, conflict researcher with a doctorate, and peace diplomat, works primarily with oil paints but also experiments with acrylics, spray paint, and natural materials such as sand, stones, and wood. Since returning to painting in 2018, his work has followed a thematic development closely linked to his experiences: climate change, environmental destruction, armed conflicts, and their societal transformation. The artist walks a fine line between representational and abstract art, with abstract painting taking center stage recently. While earth tones and textures dominated his earlier works, he increasingly employs a broad palette. The smaller formats of his most recent work demonstrate a strong and contrasting use of color, without uncritically following the current trend of vibrant hues.
