About The Artwork

The dutch golden age around 1650 has always fascinated me. I have tried to paint these children of Jozef Israels (Kinderen der zee 1872) with the style of this period. That slowed me down. The faster we see, the less we grasp the things. But a good artwork also has to reflect its history. As a child, balloons affected me strangly. Therefore I designed the shape of the elements according to my own understanding. These children - like we do - only experience, when they put their experience at risk. Das Goldene Zeitalter der Holländischen Malerei um 1650 herum hat mich schon immer interessiert. Ich habe versucht, Jozef Israels Kinderen der Zee (1872) im Stile der holländischen Meister zu malen. Das entschleunigte mich. Je schneller wir sehen, desto weniger begreifen wir. Aber ein gutes Bild muss auch seine Zeit reflektieren. Als Kind haben mich Luftballons immer seltsam berührt. Also habe ich eine Beziehung zwischen den Elementen und Teilen entwickelt. Wie auch wir, machen diese Kinder nur dann Erfahrung, wenn Sie ihr Verständnis aufs Spiel setzen.

Besuden is painting antideterministic art. For the first time at the beginning of the new century (2005) in London the question is raised, whether deterministic attributes of modern painting (new, authentic, antidecorative, scandalous) must be fundamentally reconsidered. In 2009 the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung published a report about the Transition Gallery in London, and their new appreciation of art under the heading: 'we need more dilettantes'. In this case the scandal is not intended to create a better saleability. Art musnt be no longer new, authentic, anti-decorative to be serious art. The anti-deterministic artist is allowed to paint old, anti-authentic, decorative but in a new dogmatical style. With every peace of art, corresponding with the above mentioned characteristics, the artists turns against the dictate of the ruling dogmatics. He is pursuing art policy by intentionally ignoring the quality requirements of the first art market and thus he regains absolute artistic freedom. www.eckhard-besuden.de
