About The Artwork

FLOATING WORLD series of 3 oil-based woodcuts on paper, Edition 6 print size 60 x 42 cm, paper size 69 x 50 cm ©2019 Stefan Osnowski left: „Kirifuri“ middle: „Kanagawa“ right: “Yoro“ The series of 3 woodcuts in their title refers on the one hand to the classical genre of the „Ukijo-e” (Flowing World), a name of a genre of Japanese painting and printmaking, on the other hand also to the element water in general. At the same time, each single graphics in their respective design, composition, specific graphic means and finally their individual titles allude to 3 well-known woodcuts by Katsushika Hokusai: “Kirifuri Waterfall”, “The Great Wave of Kanagawa” and “Yoro Waterfall “. The basic visual idea of this print series is that of image manipulation and the associated critical questioning of the visible: To what extent can a new visibility in the midst of the virtualized visible rediscover the artistically “invisible”?

„For many years now, Stefan Osnowski has been concerned with a new approach to wood engravings and has been developing the opportunities inherent to the technique. When preparing the engravings enlarged to the size of an easel painting, he creates a range of tonal values purely through the variation of the width and depth of the carved lines, horizontal and vertical or diagonal, as well as through the alteration of the density of the grid whilst retaining a purely monochrome imagery. His printing technique also deviates from the norm, due to the use of a palm- size glass lens to manually rub the ink onto the paper rather than a printing press, thus preserving the apparent uniqueness of each individual item in a series. Physical contact and hand-crafting is just as much a part of the concept as gathering a theme or selecting a medium.”
