Detailed description
Picture "Avenue to Strodehne" (2006) (Unique piece)
Lutz Friedel's works visualise seemingly romantic natural moods and landscapes that surround the painter. "Avenue to Strodehne" is a poetic picture that seems to tell of the dreariness on a rainy winter day in Brandenburg. The brushstroke moves into the dramatic, the stormy - and yet it captures the hidden charm of the Havelland landscape, aided by the artist's keen sense of colour.
Oil on canvas, 2006. Signed, dated and titled. Size in frame 42.5 x 57.5 cm as shown.
About Lutz Friedel
Lutz Friedel, born in Leipzig, Germany, in 1948, was a master-class student at the Academy of Visual Arts in Leipzig under Prof. Bernhard Heisig.
Lutz Friedel's works are often characterised by a romantic nature atmosphere. Typical for his art is the perspective expanses of the paintings. The brushstrokes are dramatic, stormy, and yet he is able to capture the hidden quality of the landscape stimulus, aided by a happy feeling for colour. His expressive works are painted powerfully and expressively.
A one-of-a-kind or unique piece is a work of art that has been personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolours, drawing, etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there exist the so-called "serial unique pieces". They present a series of works with the same colour, motif and technique, manually prepared by the same artist. The serial unique pieces are rooted in "serial art", a type of modern art, that aims to create an aesthetic effect through series, repetitions and variations of the same objects or themes or a system of constant and variable elements or principles.
In the history of arts, the starting point of this trend was the work "Les Meules" (1890/1891) by Claude Monet, in which for the first time a series was created that went beyond a mere group of works. The other artists, who addressed to the serial art, include Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian and above all Gerhard Richter.
