Fenster zur Gegenwart - Werke aus der Sammlung

KUNSTMUSEUM BERN @ PROGR Marcel Gähler

The draftsman and painter from Winterthur always has a camera with him when he is out and about taking pictures of insignificant locations—of waste land, garden plots and forests between dusk and dawn, when it is raining or snowing. The photographs are mostly blurred. They are predestined to be used for producing hyperrealistic oilpaintings, watercolors and drawings. Consciousness for what the hurried and passing glance first missed results from the slow process of making a drawing of the whole photograph or of a small detail from it. In this way the ambience of the sheets becomes emotionally charged, and internal landscapes, distant memories and a confusion of feelings unfold before our eyes.
