About the Item
In diesem Katalog soll es auch ein paar Entdeckungen geben, denn sie sind der Antrieb für alle Kunstaficionados und somit auch für mich als Galerist. Diese wunderbar reduzierte Arbeit auf Glas aus den 30er Jahren ist dafür ein wunderbares Beispiel und wartet jetzt auf den nächsten Entdecker.
Für einen Glaskünstler wie Robert Klein mag die Technik das natürlichste der Welt sein, tatsächlich ist eine Ätzung auf Glas eine kaum bekannte Technik, die hier aber gekonnt und äußert passend eingesetzt wird. Die Farbpalette beschränkt sich auf ein Braun, das durch die Ätzung unterschiedliche hellere Töne bekommt. Die Technik erscheint ähnlich wie beim Holzschnitt, das Glas als Medium wirkt aber moderner und ermöglicht die Inszenierung mit Licht im Hintergrund. Ein spezielles Licht, nämlich ein zerstörerisches Feuer, ist auch das Motiv dieser stark reduzierten Arbeit. Man erkennt im Hintergrund den brennenden Stall, während im Vordergrund der Bauer und Bäuerin damit beschäftigt sind Kinder und Kühe zu retten. Auffällig ist die dynamische und ausgeklügelte Komposition der Arbeit, die den Betrachter mit Diagonalen zum Bildmittelpunkt und zum Feuer ziehen. Die Gesichter des Bauernpaars sind reduziert, wirken dadurch aber umso stärker. Dem Künstler gelingt sowohl die Kraft und das Lodern des Feuers darzustellen, als auch den Rauch extra herauszuätzen. In Summe ein äußert dynamischen und modernes Werk.

- Mirror, Meta EmpathBy Linda K Schinkel and Theodore M SchinkelLocated in Detroit, MIThis work symbolizes the intuitive journey of an empath as she channels her inner knowledge. The work reminds viewers that they know more than they realize in fields of plenty in consciousness beyond the knowable realm. One is reminded to trust one's instinct, to take that leap of faith knowing that there is more there than meets one's eyes. In the reflection the viewer sees themselves and their surroundings as part of the Empath, allowing for a stronger connection with themselves and the world. Metalamirror™ works, build upon the duo's original artist process, Metalagram®, channeling their messages through a revolutionary medium comprised of one layer of handmade Metalagram® + one aligned layer of hand-made silver mirror. The Metalagram® layer, made with the artist duo's original artist process, exists as a separate layer under the aligned silver mirror. The artist duo creates this sculptural work at the intersection of old-world skills and 21st century technology. Lighting impacts this artwork with photons meeting the hand cut layered aluminum at different angles of incidence. Viewers' perception of the work changes as one navigates 180 degrees around the work. Spot lighting...Category
