Andrea Lehnert expo

Andrea Lehnert (Düsseldorf) paints with rapid, thick brushstrokes on rough, unprocessed canvas or paper. Her work moves between the abstract and the concrete, the rational and the unreasonable. She finds parallels with the times we live in, a world in which rationality and madness come together. Lehnert's work is a psychological journey in time. What remains visible and what is covered. But also, how does her work relate to art historical painters such as Velasquez and Matisse. Lehnert's landscapes manifest themselves as large-scale visual events. Any human bodies present tell a smaller and quieter story.
