Die Overbecks – neu sortiert

In the organizer's words:

Fritz and Hermine Overbeck's paintings have never been seen like this before: The artist Ulrike Brockmann has used selected paintings by the Worpswede artist couple as the basis for her own works of art. She processed images of the original paintings from around 1900 using specially developed software, broke them down into their color values and rearranged them according to the frequency of their occurrence.

Through careful artistic interventions in contrast and internal differentiation, she created independent, non-representational works of art that are completely detached from the underlying motif and evoke their mood through color alone.
