Gotthard Graubner – Im Zentrum die Farbe
In the organizer's words:
The new presentation in the Atelierhaus at Museum Insel Hombroich focuses on the paintings of Gotthard Graubner. On display are etchings, watercolors and paintings from the 1960s to the 1980s, which are characterized by a strongly meditative and sensual quality. Graubner was fascinated by the effect of colors and intensively explored their fine gradations and textures in his painting. His large-format, so-called "color space bodies" consist of several superimposed layers of paint that create great depth and an optical pull. The cushion-like lining of the canvases gives his paintings a fascinating presence in the room and creates an intense visual experience. In the exhibition conceived by the artist Hans-Willi Notthoff, these works enter into a dialog with paintings by Lovis Corinth, Jean Fautrier and Kurt Schwitters as well as historical sculptures from China. This also reveals the artistic contexts from which Graubner drew for his work.
