True Colours

The short cycle of “True Colours” is laden with a secondary meaning at best. There is no pursuit of any motif but colour and abstract substance. And yet in each picture the beholder can see clearly floral ornaments emerging from the swathes of colour. It’s all about the strange exclusiveness of read hues – as known from the previous years, like in the cycle “Red Orange Moon” – even if there is no red in the picture at all. Similarly the three-dimensionality composed by visible brushstrokes, sometimes by the traces of dripping is here more important then in pictures painted after “True Colours”
