Alfons Walde, a young, unknown Tyrolean master, untiringly works on his art in the beauty of his mountains, and constantly wants to push his abilities further, with astonishing originality. His images radiate the austere power of his home region, and there is a mysterious quality that leaves us in awe in front of his creations. This is because all his images are host to this kind of fluidity that makes our senses shudder; a fluidity that can only be found where a genius was at work. This artist’s works are brilliant and masterful in technique, despite their balanced influences originating from various sides. This is only just the beginning, and one can already sense that the next milestones lie further and further along the pathway of art…
