Martel Wiegand

German, 1922-2006
Martel Wiegand (born August 4, 1922, in Düsseldorf; died October 4, 2006, in Kaarst) was a German university lecturer, illustrator, textile artist, and watercolorist. After the war, she studied Free Painting at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich from 1946 to 1949, where she met art educator Richard Ott and South American art teachers, which led to her first pedagogical ideas. In 1950, she passed the talent examination for university admission, allowing her to study at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf until 1952. After passing the state exam, she began teaching at the Städtisches Werkseminar am Räuscherweg. From 1953 to 1968, she ran an "open drawing room" for children and led an experimental class at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf from 1955 to 1956. In 1972, she received a teaching assignment at the Comprehensive University of Essen (now the University of Duisburg-Essen) and became a lecturer and research associate in 1974, where she also became friends with Eva Thomkins. From 1974 to 1980, she stayed in Ireland and Italy for study purposes, including at the Villa Romana in Florence. Her students included Eva Marie Degenhardt, Rose Köster, Petra Füth, and Gabi Mett. Martel Wiegand's works are characterized by great versatility in themes and techniques, including textile objects, textile reliefs, cloths, collages, linocuts, watercolors, and gouaches in tempera. After her stay at the Villa Romana in Florence, she created her first fully plastic works, such as heads, cake pieces, boards, and rolls. She wrote short and concise visual poems directly related to her works, which she graphically adapted to sheets or envelopes, depending on the context of the respective series. Together with Helmut Blochwitz, she developed the art project "Zur Mitte hin" between 1991 and 1995, in which a total of 23 art steles were installed in the town hall square, in the city lake, and in the city garden in Kaarst.

Abstract India Edition 3/5 Linocut Print Green Blue Turquoise Architectural

By Mukesh Sharma

Located in Norfolk, GB

There is a natural and raw understanding in Mukesh Sharma’s prints that both depict, and are influenced by, the Rajastani communities of his home town in rural India. In these Limited Edition fine-art prints, made over a period of twenty years, we are offered the colours of India’s ancient land, the textures, light and the patterns that are everywhere. In the patterns of the arable fields to the jali's (carved screens) in the architecture. This work is however not romantic nor nostalgic but shows a deeper rooted need to offer a visual heritage of place, of where the artist is from and the journey that he is taking. The results are both compelling and honest. Mukesh Sharma, Celebration B, Lino-cut on Drawing paper Edition: 3 of 5, 2005 Image size: 47 x 39 cm / Sheet size: 79 x 55 cm Unframed Mukesh Sharma's work: It is often in childhood that paths are set for what we will become. Mukesh Sharma hails from a rural, agricultural village in Rajasthan, India. His Father is a craftsman who fixed and mended farm machinery and understood the working parts in the processes. Sharma followed in his Father’s footsteps, as is often the case in Indian families, but his was not the machines of the fields but the presses of the printing studio. Like his Father, Mukesh Sharma is fascinated with understanding how things work and how he can manipulate the metal in his hands. It is not surprising then that his medium of choice is printing. One of the most physically challenging of all the practices, it can often be physically challenging as well as technical and detailed. In his youth, Sharma would draw with stones on walls and floors. He was lucky his family encouraged this and he is grateful for his early art-training at the Jaipur School of Art but it was at the Baroda Art Department that he was introduced to the great printing traditions of Jyoti Bhatt...
