Clara Gesang-Gottowt – in between figurative and abstract☁️ 
Clara Gesang-Gottowt’s practice is in between figurative and abstract. The motifs appear to develop slowly through the thin layers of paint but also look as if they could dissolve at any moment.Sunflowers have featured in Clara Gesang-Gottowt’s art since 2017. She denies having actively sought out this theme. The sunflowers simply materialised, appeared in and through painterly processes. In Sunflower II and Sunflower III, both from 2017, this seems to be the case: the sunflowers just about manage to emerge from the careful brushwork in the yellow-green or brownish-red layers of paint. In the larger painting, Sunflowers II from 2021, the five sunflowers are more defined and almost fill the entire canvas. The soft brush strokes and the thin yellow paint that might have been tenderly worked into the canvas evoke a sensation of gently pulsating motion in the flowers – almost as if they were expressing nature’s respiration. But the treatment of colour also makes them appear to be the actual source of light in the painting: like five mildly radiating suns breaking through the twilight background. The long symbolic link between sunflowers and the sun is exquisitely embodied in the work. For the exhibition I Follow the Sun, Clara Gesang-Gottowt has made several new works in a more vivid palette than previously. Both her earlier and newer work are represented in the exhibition, which is on view until January 5 2025. ➡️Read more and prebook your tickets at the link in bio.

Immerse Yourself in van Gogh’s Painting✨   Vincent van Gogh was born into a Protestant minister’s family in 1853 in Zundert, Netherlands. It wasn’t until the age of 27 that he began painting in earnest, and in 1886, he moved to Paris, where he met young artists who were part of the avant-garde. However, van Gogh’s distinctive style was fully realised during a productive period in Arles, in the south of France. Under the Provençal sun, he expanded his subjects to olive trees, landscapes, cypresses, and sunflowers. These motifs can now be explored in the art experience ”Imagine Van Gogh,” on display in Artipelag’s Artbox until the 13th of October.   ➡️Read more and get your tickets at the link in bio.   #Artipelag #ArtMeetsNature #ImagineVanGogh

Scensommar,😎🎶 28 juli!

Crossroads - a case for quiet meditation in nature☁️   Born in 1978 in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Matías Di Carlo lives and works in Málaga, Spain. However, it is his Italian roots and a long tradition of artistic iron work that have influenced his art. Di Carlo is the fourth generation who has mastered fire and metals. Abstract, monumental sculptures dominate his artistic expression.   In Artipelag’s outdoor exhibition Sculpture in Nature, Di Carlo is represented with the work Crossroads, the latest addition to Artipelag’s art collection. Crossroads is a meeting place between the city, nature and different cultures. Although the sculpture takes its form from a mountain, the inspiration comes as much from the Japanese art of paperfolding, often called “origami”. The connection is an expression of the artist’s meditative relationship to existence and nature. Crossroads makes a case for quiet meditation in nature, which also characterises Artipelag’s sculpture collection.   The artworks featured in Sculpture in Nature can be seen along the walking paths in the surrounding forests, meadows, seashore, jetty, and headland.   ➡️Read more about the exhibition and buy the audio guide at the link in bio.

From Seed to Seed 🌱   Edward Steichen began drawing and photographing in his teens. He worked with painting and photography simultaneously and did not distinguish particularly between them.   After volunteering in the First World War, Steichen settled in Voulangis east of Paris to grow vegetables and flowers. Like many other artists, Steichen longed to get away from the destruction of war and engaged in the formal issues of the New Objectivity. It was around this time that he became interested in sunflowers, in both painting, as in the cubist-influenced work The Sunflower (c. 1920), and photography, with his extensive series Sunflowers. From Seed to Seed (begun in 1920). As the title of the series indicates, Steichen portrayed the entire life cycle of the sunflower, including exquisite photos of its early stages of decay, as in Dead Sunflower.   Artipelag’s newly opened exhibition I Follow the Sun features four works by Steichen. In addition to Dead Sunflower, three works in colour are shown: Sunflower in Thunderstorm, Large Sunflower and Bouquet of Sunflowers. Come see them!   Read more and pre-book your tickets at the link in bio. Photo: Edward Steichen, Dead Sunflower, ca. 1920. Gelatin silver print, toned, 35,3 x 27,6 cm. Printed after 1953.

Bollard – between the abstract and the figurative〰️

Joel Fisher (b. 1947) is a sculptor, drawer, and painter known for his biomorphic sculptures. In Artipelag’s outdoor exhibition Sculpture in Nature, Fisher is represented with the work Bollard (1987). Here, Fisher works in a biomorphic and abstract style prevalent during the 1980s, a time when art referenced Cubism and non-western parts of the world. The sculpture refers to a construction made initially for mooring boats to a pier; however, the form is reminiscent of a human figure. The sculpture hovers between the abstract and the figurative. A single, curved line would be sufficient to make a drawing of Fisher’s sculpture – and still, a human figure would appear.
