SERIES
I love working on topics multiple times and creating series from them. Besides the big series "Keep Rockin" and "The fool`s mirror" I would like to introduce three other series here:
Albrecht / The unknown Albrecht
The series "Albrecht/The unknownb Albrecht" is a reminiscence for the great German painter and illustrator Albrecht Dürer. The (quite megalomaniacal) idea was to depict fictional, undiscovered works by Albrecht Dürer. These were put in the context of the initial variant "Albrecht" with the famous rabbit from the Albertina in Vienna, placed in the interior of the Dürer House in Nuremberg..It was followed by four variations of the "Unknown Albrecht" with animals that appear in other works of mine, always set in the same Nuremberg interior and all in the same size (26 x 26 cm). All paintings are made with pastels. I compete with Mr Dürer, this is where megalomania begins,,,
Albrecht
pastels, 26 x 26 cm (2023)
The unknown Albrecht, Variation 1-4
Pastels, 26 x 26 cm (2024)
(The images can be enlarged by clicking on them)
The series is shown as one artwork, put together as a kind of flat sculpture: "Albrecht" with the original rabbit raised in the middle, the variations of the "Unknown Albrecht" around it.
Lights
A series in ten parts (2008 - 2010) and some other attemps to catch the light on paper, made with pastels.
The images can be enlarged by clicking on them. Then the size of the artwork and the year of origin appear in addition to the title.
