Erich Lechner Photo Art - Entrance to Art

ERICH LECHNER
Born on January 4, 1951, lives in Irdning, Austria, certified art teacher. His works are inspired by the idea of impressionism, the snapshot of a mood, a fantasy, an idea that the artist reproduces in his compositions through conscious cropping and image design. Since 2012, he has been intensively involved in art photography with exhibitions in Austria in Salzburg, Vienna, Graz, Bregenz, Krems, and Liezen, as well as in Poland and the Czech Republic. From 2017 to 2023, he was curator of the art gallery in the Arkade in Liezen. Since 2024, he has been curator of the art gallery in the CCW in Stainach.

“Erich Lechner's photo impressionism is a sensitive snapshot of picturesque details and compositions. He uses his camera and computer to make images visible to us.” (Prof. Peter Gerl, exhibition at Galerie Peger, Salzburg 2015)

“Erich Lechner's photos are imaginary journeys through nature. In his pictures, he deliberately leads us away from hustle and bustle, fast-paced life, and sensation, and toward tranquility, delicacy, and harmony.” (Dalia Blauensteiner, exhibition at Galerie Daliko, Krems 2015)

“The artist Erich Lechner has a close and friendly relationship with nature. He tries to convey this in his photo prints and reawaken it in us humans.” (Nicola Conte Filipelli, exhibition at Kunstraum Wien Mitte, Vienna 2018)
