The empathic portraits

"It is here, however, that his intellectual and creative discipline is revealed: In the capturing of the individual and its transformation to an artistically valuable design. Skill, diligence, attention to detail and mastery are not enough to approach the human being in such a way, to grasp him in such a way as Martin Mayer succeeds in doing: There is and remains an imponderable involved here – whether it is intuition, whether it is the striation at the border of the concept of genius or quite simply the creative luck that distinguishes this artist from others." *
