Detailed description
Picture "Light and Carefree" (2018), on stretcher frame
The Lüneburg artist Anja Struck is a master of atmospheric staging. This applies, for example, to her works in which she combines people and landscape. Typical of these works is the dissolution of boundaries, the obscuring of motifs and the emergence of blurriness. Struck's protagonists are completely absorbed in their surroundings. They almost blur into them and thus become a part of nature itself.
Edition transferred directly onto artist's canvas using the Fine Art Giclée process and stretched onto a stretcher frame. Limited edition of 199 copies, numbered and signed by hand. Size 55 x 77 cm (h/w). ars mundi Exclusive Edition.

About Anja Struck
A master of atmospheric staging
The painter Anja Struck places people at the centre of her work and stages them in landscapes, sequences of movements or portraits. She says that every figure she paints represents her emotional world. "Every work is a piece of myself, unconcealed, naked and honest." Struck achieves the special mood in her paintings through a deliberate blurring: motifs and contours blur and dissolve into veils of colour.
Struck was born in 1961 in Hamburg, Germany. Today she lives and works in Lüneburg. She studied graphics and design, art education and painting under Markus Lüpertz, among others.
Graphic or sculpture edition that was initiated by ars mundi and is available only at ars mundi or at distribution partners licensed by ars mundi.
Depiction of typical scenes from daily life in painting, whereby a distinction can be made between peasant, bourgeois and courtly genres.
The genre reached its peak and immense popularity in Dutch paintings of the 17th century. In the 18th century, especially in France, the courtly-galant painting became prominent while in Germany the bourgeois character was emphasised.
Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, spurt".
The giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format printout on an inkjet printer with special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The colours are fade-proof, i.e. resistant to harmful UV light. They have a high richness of nuance, contrast and saturation.
The giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade and watercolour paper as well as for silk.
