Description from the seller
Screen print on paper by Kuno Schiefer
Dimensions: 56 x 56 cm
Provenance:
- Family estate of Kuno Schiefer
Kuno Schiefer (Stuttgart, 1948 – São José dos Campos, 1992) was a German painter and graphic artist who spent the majority of his life working in Brazil. His oeuvre includes paintings, drawings, and graphics, with his Brazilian period especially characterized by influences from tropical nature and the landscape. His work was noticed early on and exhibited in major 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 a nearly musical rhythm in composition and brushwork. Through the exchange between Europe and Brazil, a personal visual language emerged, in which he gradually moved away from figurative representation toward more introspective and freer painting.
Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framing workshop, celebrating its 85th anniversary year. Furthermore, we make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to make use of this, we would of course be happy to hear from you.
