Parov Stelar - Leave the Future Behind - Exhibition

Marcus Füreder, known worldwide as Parov Stelar, is one of the most successful Austrian artists of his generation. Between studio and stage, canvas and dance floor, he creates a multifaceted cosmos of art, sound, and emotion. For him, painting is a spontaneous impulse reaction – a dialogue with chance. Digital drafts flow into luminous oil compositions that evolve through the process until a painting "looks back at him" and he knows: it is complete. Painting forms his counterpoint to music, the tactile to the digital world. "I paint, therefore I am," he says – painting as an existential statement. His works reflect an affinity with Pop Art from Warhol to Lichtenstein, while at the same time revealing inner struggles, fears, and longings – visual psychograms of a seeker between sound and color. The native Upper Austrian studied painting in Linz and Berlin, exhibited large-scale, autobiographical works at the Francisco Carolinum in 2021, and demonstrates: Parov Stelar constantly reinvents himself – between beat and brushstroke, euphoria and melancholy.
