Description from the seller
Oil painting on canvas by Kuno Schiefer
Dimensions: 100 x 100 cm
Comes with a book about Kuno Schiefer
Provenance:
- Estate 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 prints, with his Brazilian period especially characterized by influences from tropical nature and the landscape. He was noticed early and his work was exhibited in important galleries in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. From 1985 he alternated working in Brazil and Berlin, which had a significant influence on his artistic development.
In his work Schiefer developed from figurative representations 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 interaction between Europe and Brazil a personal visual language emerged, in which he gradually detached from figuration and arrived at a more introspective and freer painting.
Viewing is, of course, possible. In addition, we have our own in-house framing shop, which is celebrating its 85th anniversary. Furthermore, we make use of restorers from the professional association: 'Restauratoren Nederland'. If you would like to take advantage of this, please let us know.
