ABOUT THE ARTWORK

The Alsican series is based on the draperies of Renaissance painting. The artistic approach consists of separating the original folds from the bodies and depicting them as isolated and newly combined forms. This seems to work particularly well because, in all probability, the original pleats were also used by the painters of the time to create a dramatic effect rather than to depict real garments. Without the figurative reference of the originals, these newly composed folds conceal non-representational patterns that inevitably inspire associations. Bodies, faces, people and animals can be discovered. Ausgangspunkt der Serie Alsican sind die Faltenwürfe der Renaissance-Malerei. Der künstlerische Ansatz besteht darin, die originalen Faltenwürfe von den Körpern zu trennen und als isolierte und neu kombinierte Formendarzustellen. Dies scheint besonders gut zu funktionieren, weil aller Wahrscheinlichkeit nach auch die originalen ursprünglichen Falten durch das Zutun der damaligen Maler eher einer dramatischen Steigerung dienten als reale Gewänder darzustellen. In diesen neuen komponierten Faltengebilden verbergen sich ohne den figürlichen Bezug der Originale ungegenständliche Muster die zwangsläufig zu Assoziationen anregen. Körper, Gesichter, Menschen und Tiere lassen sich entdecken.
