ANDREAS LISS ISSUE 3 DYNAMIC ARTIST MAGAZINE UNFRAMED

ISSUE 03: ANDREAS LISS — A LOVE LETTER TO BEAUTY

Andreas Liss grew up the outsider. Indonesian parents in a small German town where families like his were rare. He was a shy child who learned to watch the world from a distance. That distance never left him. It became his subject.

Today he paints strangers. Faces he finds in photographs online — people he has never met, will never meet. Working in oil, alla prima, in a single sitting of two to three hours, he turns a stranger’s face into something slower and more attentive than the image that produced it. Since 2021 he has completed more than 1,000 portraits. Not for a career. Not for sales. Because he cannot stop.

This magazine is his story in his own words.

You’ll read about why he paints people he’ll never know. How silence and music shape the same work. What he actually looks for when he judges his own painting. Why he rarely sells — and what that means for the work that does exist.

What you’re getting:

A digital magazine with Andreas answering the questions collectors actually ask. High-resolution images of his strongest portraits. Detail shots showing brushwork, value, the alla prima directness that makes each piece unrepeatable. His full exhibition history. His own words on what it means to own a painting made honestly and without calculation.

This isn’t a gallery writeup. It’s Andreas talking directly to you.
