KLAUS FUSSMANN
Exhibition from 22.04.2023 — 31.05.2023
Klaus Fussmann, painter and graphic artist, born in Velbert (D) in 1938, is one of the representatives of the new representationalism. His motifs and themes are nature and creation. Fussmann impresses with his unmistakable style, in which he masterfully handles form and color, blending the boundaries between abstraction and figuration. In particular, the artist has rediscovered for himself the technique of linocut. Clear, strong colors create rich color surfaces that conjure up vivid landscapes and color-intensive plant worlds. His flower motifs blur into color structures that, despite abstraction, do not deny the typical shape of the individual plants. Klaus Fussmann lives and works in Gelting on the Baltic Sea and in Berlin.
The exhibition will feature color linocuts by the artist.
