Susanne Mengele grew up with Franco Thamér’s vividly told anecdotes: of special places, fascinating places and sensory impressions that remain firmly rooted in the artist’s mind to this day. It is of these that his powerful, expressive pictures relate, thriving on the colour spectra that Franco Thamér has seen, and whose importance he recognises. Susanne Mengele also heard of the different periods of creativity through which the artist - a native of Kärtner – has passed during the course of his creative life. The young woman wanted to retrace all these moments, to walk in the artist’s footsteps, and to experience what he felt there.
