Gespräch mit Chris Kamprad

In the organizer's words:
Chris Kamprad is a self-taught freelance painter living in Berlin. From 1999 to 2002 she attended a free painting class with the Berlin artist couple Astrid Albers and Jürgen Sage. She also studied mask making at the Kunsthochschule Dresden. Chris Kamprad has been a member of Gedok Berlin since March 2022.
"Sky-high abstract spaces reference the pre-impressionist painting of William Turner combined with the sharpness of expressionist lines, creating a visual crescendo or involuntarily recalling the sounds of Bach or Vivaldi. The way in which supposed cloud structures literally pull you into higher spheres and seem to be the harbinger of a drama, how elsewhere pink, bright blue tones and orange collide or how large surfaces are virtually attacked by shimmering brushstrokes, all this can confidently be described as "great painting", a term that is just as anachronistic as the art of the Berliner-by-choice herself." Carsten Lehmann (Curator)
An event organized by artothek berlin and artspring berlin in cooperation with the Kurt-Tucholsky-Stadtbibliothek.
