red 5 Painting

While the early autonomous images are still strongly contoured and have strong, non-figurative elements, The work from 1993 onwards is characterized by overlapping, transparent color veils, Which slide between the observer and the image, like milky or glazed lenses. Colors of different densities and materiality pull into the image depth and lead back to the image surface. Colors evoke moods and stir, in spite of all object refusal, associations. In the widest sense, all his images have to do with the elementary forces, also with "nature". With visible nature, with natural feeling and with the nature of the feelings. "The landscape-forming elements are seen through the magnifying glass", Nußbächer calls his approach. This also makes him a descendant of Romanticism. In contrast to her, he also undermines the possible impression of an idyll by the design of the surface, By the reaction of the materials, that is, by the cracks and spots, indentations and bursting color bubbles. The color, for him a visual archetype, he uses in material, as well as psychological and symbolic meaning. Red for fire, embers, blood, love, passion and violence. The color, for him a visual archetype, he uses in material, as well as psychological and symbolic meaning. Red for fire, embers, blood, love, passion and violence. The complementary color green / green- blue for water, depth, mystery, for transparency. Nußbächer thus leads the traditional landscape painting into a color painting of the elements.
