Artist's portrait
A comprehensive journey through four decades of artistic work seeking to introduce this internationally still widely undetected artist to a wider audience.
Spanning from the intriguing informal painitngs of the eighties and early nineties to a figurative phase exploring the archetypes and myths of mankind, using oil and pure colour pigments, to the vividly coloured geometric abstraction of the latter decade we trace connecting lines, ambiguities and progression in this multi faceted oeuvre.
The artist leads us by her own words and voice through her recent retrospective at Seippel Art Foundation (Cologne 2013) and into her studio allowing personal insights into her work and history.
Luisa Schatzmann was born in Madrid in 1933.
She lives and works in Cologne, Germany.
