Detailed description

Picture "Abstract landscape XX-2019" (2019)

The painting Hinrich JW Schüler is inspired by the light and the vastness of northern German, American and Australian coastal and desert landscapes. Light, color and space are defining elements: "Deserts, coastal landscapes, endless expanses and barren places have always interested me. In the studio, a reduction to the essential takes place in artistic creation. The works created in this way sound out connections and transitions between real nature and abstraction, move in this exciting border area and draw their energy from it. The paintings do not show a (photo-) realistic "what-I-have-seen", but reflect atmospheric experiences. Personal experiences become the occasion for painting, not the intention of an exact representation of what is found" (Hinrich Schüler).
