About the Item

Typical of Gabriele Mierzwa's softly toned academically inspired figurative oil paintings is the sensitive portrayal of dynamic, intimate figures. These sensual moments are powerfully expressed through a sense of spontaneity balanced with layered washes of color. Mierzwa’s main intention is to arrange harmony and beauty. At the center of her artworks is the nude – natural and graceful. The observer is impressed at first glance by her classically rendered figurative drawing followed by the tender color fields and dynamic lines that form the background of her one-of-a-kind works. On further observation, the tangible forms dissolve and lose their contours. The emphasis shifts to the transparently arranged color fields. The observer's fantasy can freely develop within clouds of color and form. This 47 inch tall by 40 wide wide original figurative artwork on canvas is wired and ready to hang. The sides of the artwork are painted, and it does not require framing. It is signed by the artist on the front of the artwork. Free local Los Angeles area delivery. Affordable Continental U.S. and worldwide shipping are available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Gabriele Mierzwa was born in Schwientochlowitz, Upper Silesia, in 1958. She studied art in the studio of Prof. Henryk Dziecol from 1971 until 1978. She was just fourteen years old when she won the Golden Medal J. Nehru by UNICEF in an art contest in India. From 1973 until 1979 she studied at the Kattowitz Art School and received a Ph.D. in art. Since 1985 she has been living and working as an independent artist in the Black Forest, Germany. To change perceptions and create something new is what Mierzwa seeks to accomplish through her artwork. She assembles fragments of memory. The nudes arise from her daily observations and are stimulated by her fantasy. Gabriele Mierzwa has developed into a well-known artist within the international art scene. She has exhibited in Hamburg, Dortmund, Düsseldorf, Offenburg, Lahr, Wuppertal, Schwetzingen, Bingen, Stuttgart, Köln, Germanisches National Museum Nürnberg, Olten, Basel, Zürich, London, Tokyo, Miami, Los Angeles and New York.
