Harald Kroner
Cut 42 (Abstract work on paper)

2018

About the Item

Ink, enamel on paper - Unframed This work is part of one of 4 on-going series of large works on paper. The name of this series, "Cut", relates to the technique used by the artist, but also refers to the editing process in filmmaking, each work being produced from 'footage'-like paper strips prepared and assembled at a later stage, determining what will eventually be visible or not. Kröner's starting point are two painted sheets of paper: a large background of heavy drawing paper, and a lighter, semi-transparent sheet cut into strips and reversed so that both painted sides face each other. Following a self imposed rule, Kröner then positions the strips on the background so that every mark on this background coïncides with an existing mark on the paper strip. Everything else is random. Constrained by this rule, the role of the artist is then to strike the right balance between chance and control, chaos and order, to achieve a result which is both aesthetic and challenging for the viewer. And undeniably beautiful. Harald Kröner is a German artist who could be described as “paper artist”, producing essentially works on paper and collages. His work involves also public installations. He lives and works in Pforzheim (Germany). Harald Kröner works thoroughly with paper, of which he is a notorious collector, whether it be artist paper, printed sheets, or papers collected in his daily life, transforming them into drawings and collages. His works are made predominantly with coloured ink, but stain, lacquer, spray or enamel can sometimes be used in the creation process. Lines, very present on his artworks, can be the result of a pencil stroke, a cut, the edge of a torn paper, dripping ink or the borders of collaged paper underneath his paintings. Chance plays an important role in his work, which explores the limit between hazard and control, order and chaos. Harald Kröner’s work is very much about perception and the transition between the visible and the invisible, where the colour influences and tints the drawing, where the line evolves into a rhythm or music, where the complex and surprising combination of elements create an harmony only observable by the viewer. Reminiscence of Asian traditions also transpires in Kröner’s work with the use of ink suggesting spontaneity and freedom together with rigor and concision. Languages, fonts and literature are also an important source of inspiration for him, especially in his public installations.

W Unframed ____________________________ On Hansen originally from Scandinavia is the pseudonym used by the photographer Cristian Hunter, a third-generation artist who has spent most of his professional career as a photographer.
