Martin Engler (1953) was born in Grabs (SG), Switzerland. He now lives in Geneva. After studying art in Zurich he developed diverse techniques: mixed media, oil painting, collage, bronze casting and sculpture. He executes “corporate portraits» for private individuals and companies - communication through art is born. His works are snapshots of an emotional journey linking daily life to art. His transparent «Life Portraits» leave enough space for the spectator to construct his/her own interpretation. In 2008, during a stay in Havana, Cuba, Martin Engler discovered the ancient techniques of collagraphy and monotypography. His participation at the 10th Havana Biennial is the subject of the documentary “Cuba, la caja fuerte abandonada” (Cuba, the abandoned safe), which was aired on Swiss Television and on channel TV5 in 2014-15. Martin Engler’s work has been exhibited throughout Europe, the Americas and Asia. It is part of prestigious collections and has been auctioned by Christie’s.
