GÜNTHER FÖRG

Retour

This volume of over 100 pastels by eminent German painter Günther Förg is simply breathtaking. The artist presents soft, schematic surfaces upon color field compositions made up of hard lines. When he fixes the sheet and shakes off the residual pigment, it leaves a very fine, scarcely perceptible veil over the work. Thus from time to time the palette of color oscillates from heavy to light via bright and crazy to bulging and full, compelling the observer to flip from page to page, comparing, remembering, seeing in a new way. Günther Förg’s abstraction in its most extreme form captivates every observer’s concentration. With a text by Rudi Fuchs.
