Alexander Eulert was born in San Diego in 1980. A native of the Southern California backcountry, Eulert developed a profound connection with the desert and the life-giving force of the stream that ran through the property of his childhood home. The topography of the desert, with boulder outcroppings, multi-layered cliffs, and rugged hilltops strongly influence his aesthetic.
Eulert pursued his formal art education in the United Kingdom. He received a Foundation in Graphics and Illustration from Cambridge Arts and Sciences before moving to London to complete a BA in Silversmithing and Metalwork at Camberwell College of Arts, University of the Arts London. His time in England cemented Eulert’s love of the relationship between nature, architecture, and time.
The California wildfires of 2007 swept away his home and studio and, while rebuilding his own residence, his creative focus shifted toward architecture and landscape design. His interest in human’s interaction with nature intensified as he experienced first hand the abrupt dissolution of lifelong creative efforts.
Eulert’s work reflects his interest in ancient civilizations and the juxtaposition between modern and classical. Delicate and dynamic lines of paint buzz and trickle around bold bands of color, evoking rhythmical compositions, emotional states, and natural phenomena. The cubical forms are suggestive of monoliths, pueblos, golden-green fields, as well as contemporary urban architecture.
Since moving to Santa Fe in 2012, Eulert has developed a unique language in acrylics and metal leaf. His works have been exhibited throughout the USA, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and Argentina, and are part of private and public collections worldwide.
