Detailed description
Picture "must hour" (2023)
The "mußestunde" radiates a special atmosphere of calm. The light, warm tones give the picture lightness. The motif of the person reading is slightly blurred, the contours dissolve. The space in the background is blurred. The deliberate blurring reinforces the mood surrounding the reader: Contentment and a concentrated immersion in his reading or in his associated thoughts. The picture is signed on the back.
About Anja Struck
Born in 1961 in Hamburg, I studied free painting under Prof.
Harald Duwe at the Muthesius Academy of Fine Arts Kiel. This was followed by art education in Lüneburg and graphic and design in Hamburg. Later, a two-year study with Prof. Markus Lüpertz at the Art Academy Bad Reichenhall was added.
In 2013 I received the cultural promotion award of the district of Lüneburg. My works can be seen at numerous exhibitions at home and abroad.
Abroad: including America (New York, Miami,Pennsylvania), China (Beijing), Italy(Veneidig), Poland (Katowice), Östereich, Switzerland, Dänemerk
Germany: Munich, Isny, Stuttgart, Bad Reichenhall, Berlin, Weilburg, Hilden, Dorsten, Detmold, Hanover, Stade, Hamburg, Lüneburg, Kiel, etc.
I live and work in Lüneburg. My studio is in a former distillery, built in 1856.
Man and landscape come together in my works to form an overall composition. The play of light and shadow creates liveliness. The dissolution of boundaries, the blurring of motifs and the emergence of blur gives the images something mysterious, it awakens memories and seduces the viewer to dream. This is further supported by a color choice of rather muted, soft colors.
As a North German, I love the sea. In numerous works it finds itself thematically again. It creates images with great atmospheric density.
