About Roswitha Schumacher-Kuckelkorn
Roswitha Schumacher-Kuckelkorn, born in 1962, is a master at playing with colour and form. She paints impressive, colour-intensive pictures inspired by interesting situations and landscapes - beyond known nature.
Nature is her inspiration, not her motif. It is rather the impressions she experiences shapes her paintings. She is generous with the use of colour and translates what she has experienced, simplifies what has happened and thus gives her paintings a unique character.
Tones like lush green, fresh blue, blazing red and orange determine her impressive pictures. The landscapes and sceneries are not images of reality but rather reflect the artist's impressions of these places. Her human depictions merge with the abstract colour spaces. The exciting paintings are a mixture of figuration and abstraction, painted with consistent, generous brushstrokes. The familiar is withdrawn, the fictitious emphasised. Expressive, moving colour spaces and imaginary landscapes emerge, which are worth exploring.
A one-of-a-kind or unique piece is a work of art personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolour, drawing, lost-wax sculpture etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there are also 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 genre 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.
The historical starting point is considered to be Claude Monet's "Les Meules" (1890/1891), where, 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.
