Landscapes
Adam Jankowski, professor of painting at the Offenbach University of Art and Design, can look back on an artistic career of more than 30 years. His landscapes lead the viewer into a world in which the laws of painting rule over reality, clearly showing that landscape painting can be a very lively and spectacular subject.
Lukasz Kotlinski, celebrated in Warsaw as an advertising artist, is already known in Fulda through RED CORRIDOR GALLERY with his painting. His collage-like works form a web of countless stories from which new narrative threads can always be spun.
Louis Dutroux loves the kitsch of Romanticism, which he likes to paraphrase in his peculiar paintings, as well as the artworks of Fluxus. He names the German artist Günther Uecker as one of his most important role models; he is particularly fascinated by his kinetic art. Despite these influences, Dutroux has developed in a completely independent way.
Joanna Skurska and Leszek Skurski show their latest works. Skurska, who became known above all for her wire objects, plays with the human body, abstracts it, poeticises feelings and at the same time destroys them again with the themes she addresses. It is an ambivalent, covertly aggressive kind of art that almost refuses itself to the viewer.
Skurski likes it empty. The story attached to the picture follows only at second glance. It lies outside the canvas and must first be deciphered or invented by the viewer. Art reminiscent of the best stories of Ernest Hemingway: Hemingway’s iceberg theory is honoured anew here.
