GUNTER KORUS

Gunter Korus

( 23.06.1925 - 01.09.1948) 

 

Gunter H. Korus was born in Berlin, Germany. He studied at the Atelier Kukenthal, The States Academy and The School for Graphic Arts.

 

Korus moved to the Adirondack Region of New York in 1961, and began painting detailed landscapes of the surrounding countryside. His classic “old world” museum-quality still-lifes demonstrate an unparalleled ability to capture surface textures.

The subtle shades and shadows in an oriental rug, the warm burnishing on a copper tea kettle, the rugged weathering of an old brick, or the grain and patina of fine wood, are portrayed with such a sense of dimension that they approach “touchability”.

With an extremely limited output of work, paintings are in great demand by knowledgeable collectors and investors.
