The inspiration for this work cycle is the sky at night. These paintings are not about depicting the outer appearance of the cosmic spectacle but the inner dynamic forces and the permanent movement and color changes itself. The painting process follows the path of a lying figure eight ∞ (symbol of infinity) in a picture space dominated by the colors blue or light-white. Bright red, orange to light yellow color accents are integrated in this blue background.

With wide bristle brushes the colors are applied on the canvas in swinging brush strokes. The pasty consistency of the oil colors allows each brush trace to remain visible as a relief-like structure. Often several image layers overlays each other to form a complex tissue. The light is refracted and reflected by these color structures in such a way that the painting appears different and in motion and 3D from every viewing angle. Only oil paints can show this subtle effect.

The gaze is repeatedly drawn into one of the two brightened areas, which can focus attention and lead to a meditative deepening.

The light from the infinite cosmos stands metaphorically for the positive utopia, the appearance of becoming and passing away and constantly being recreated.

All edges of the canvas are painted. No frame necessary.

« I think that art can create a free space in which the constructive and lively imagination is stimulated. » Andreas Kuhn is an established German artist who exhibits internationally. His works can be found in private collections in Australia, Germany, England, New Zealand, Norway, Scotland, Spain, Switzerland, Taiwan and USA. With wide bristle brushes, the artist brings the colors onto the canvas in swinging and sweeping brush strokes. The pasty consistency of the oil colors allows each brush trace to remain visible as a relief-like structure. Kuhn often overlays several painting layers to form a complex tissue. The light is refracted and reflected by these color structures in such a way that the image appears different and in motion from every viewing angle. Unleashing the power of colors, balancing counter-movements, modulating light: Kuhn is concerned with the harmonious balancing of all picture elements. One subject of his art is the balancing act itself, the dynamic balance of a variety of viewing options. The artist always works in painting cycles, in which he plays through a common theme, a certain color, different color contrasts and paint application, as well as a special kind of mobility, rhythm, etc. in variations. «My art is pure joy in playing with the variety of color nuances, color intensity, color contrasts, color movements, color jumps ... that can radiate far beyond the playing field. This is serious business. Keep playing too ... Lucky You!»
