The Austrian artist Alois Lindenbauer calls his works NATURE ART and this term expresses well his self-image and artistic approach. While nature and culture are generally seen as opposites, for Lindenbauer they are one big whole that never ceases to amaze him. Basicly he preferres stone, wood and other natural materials. He includes the elemental forces of nature in his creative process. Lindenbauer sees himself as a human being embedded in the larger context of nature. For him life and art go hand in hand.
