ABOUT THE ARTWORK

A peculiar artwork on a piece of an old sandwich door: Holding breath brings the world to a halt, and the elements of becoming start to shimmer. It is as if one lives to see a timeless instant of the never ending story of creation. The work process was a change of adding color and taking it away again by scratching and wiping. Then there was an irruption into that process by a homogenous layer of gray and violet that was left drying for long. Then the acts of removal and — more restrained adding — started again until the whole started to shimmer – not by reflective colors but by leading the eye from event to event, from detail to detail. A singular work in Kabuß’ oeuvre. It is a demanding painting, too. The richness in detail and the deepness by its layers calls for the beholders time, efforts, courage and appetite for visual expeditions. A thoroughly lit room that invites the beholder to stay is suggested for hanging.

Christian Kabuß is an internationally established German artist and musician. He studied Medicine at the University of Rostock, then went on to Kunsthochschule Berlin-Weißensee, Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia and Moholy-Nagy University of Arts and Design Budapest to practice Fine Art. The artistic language within his paintings is deeply linked to a phenomenological approach to bodiliness, the freedom of subconscious artistic creation, and the theoretical and practical considerations of Design. Kabuß has exhibited in Germany and abroad. His works are present in regional, national and international collections. It is his aim to work as honest as possible, and he tends towards imagery, which is embedded in Lebenswelt, and sound. As a pianist, he performs small intimate concerts. His music is soft, sometimes freely improvised and portrays a sense of a parallel-world. Exhibitions in Italy, Sweden, Germany, China, and Japan.
