About Susanne Wind
The works of Susanne Wind (born in 1965) deal with nature in all its facets and human beings and their relationship to it. The freelance artist believes it is important to respect nature, as it is the source of all human strength.
Her works encourage us to pause and recognise the beauty of nature and life. She captures the natural forces, such as the sun and wind, in different seasonal moods. Instead of colours, she paints her pictures seemingly out of light and atmosphere. The light that virtually illuminates the subject and permeates the pictures with a fascinating glow seems to reflect Susanne Wind's positive attitude towards life.
After studying painting at the Fachhochschule für Gestaltung in Hamburg, she painted mainly plein-air. Following several stays in Mallorca, Denmark and Pennsylvania, USA, Susanne Wind has been returning to live in her hometown of Hamburg since 2003. Upon her return, she shifted her painting to her studio: today, she captures motifs with her analogue camera and applies them to the canvas with egg tempera.
Susanne Wind has already exhibited her works in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Germany and the USA.
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.
