Description from the seller
Oil painting on canvas by Kuno Schiefer
Dimensions: 70 x 90 cm
Includes 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 graphics, with his Brazilian period being characterized by influences from tropical nature and the landscape. He was noticed early and exhibited in important galleries in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. From 1985 he worked alternately 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 an almost musical rhythm in composition and brushwork. Through the interplay between Europe and Brazil, a personal visual language arose, in which he progressively detached himself from figuration and arrived at a more introspective and free painting.
Viewing is of course possible. In addition we have our own in-house framing shop, which is 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.
