Was born in Velké Losiny, Czech Republic, on 20 May 1966. He graduated from The Technical University in Brno. During his studies there he was inspired by his colleague’s paintings which started him in his first art experiments with pencil. His first pictures were mostly nudes and oil miniatures of
landscapes. Further experimentation led him to add elements of dreams and symbolism into his pure nudes. His contemporary works are probably closest to symbolism in style, contrary to surrealism, given the large number of
hidden symbols in the majority of his paintings.
Gunter receives his inspiration from dreams, music (from classical to heavy metal) and literature (mainly F.Kafka, B.Hrabal and R.Bach).Apart from
painting, he occasionally writes stories and makes other projects with his friends such as recordings of short surrealistic films and improvised
alternative music collages (mixtures of music, different sounds, noises, etc.). Gunter is able to produce masterpieces on oil, graphics and combined techniques.
