Description from the seller
Oil painting on canvas by Kuno Schiefer
Dimensions: 95 x 120 cm
Delivered with book about Kuno Schiefer
Provenance:
- Heirloom of the Kuno Schiefer family
Kuno Schiefer (Stuttgart, 1948 – São José dos Campos, 1992) was a German painter and graphic artist who spent most of his life working in Brazil. His oeuvre includes paintings, drawings and graphics, with his Brazilian period particularly characterized by influences from tropical nature and the landscape. His work was noticed early and exhibited in important galleries in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. From 1985 he alternated between Brazil and Berlin, which had a significant influence on his artistic development.
In his work Schiefer developed from figurative depictions of everyday objects to expressive, often abstract interpretations of vegetation and nature. His paintings are characterized by intense colors, a strong sense of light and an almost musical rhythm in composition and brushwork. Through the interplay between Europe and Brazil, a personal visual language emerged, in which he increasingly detached himself from figuration and moved toward more introspective and free painting.
Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition we have our own in-house framery, celebrating its 85th anniversary year. Furthermore we make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to use this, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
