Johannes Heisig - Weltgefühl
DIE GALERIE
Johannes Heisig (*1953) is a thoroughbred painter. With every self-portrait, with every depiction of a landscape and with every visualization of what he sees in nature - be it bushes, trees, flowers, hornets or crows - he surpasses himself in his painting. Again and again, he creates original works that are second to none. His unique pictorial world is characterized by a modern event painting, which is composed of observations of different circumstances outside and inside his studio. His sources of inspiration can be found in the small details of everyday life, in art history and literature, but also in the depths of his own psyche, in the world of dreams. In the cityscapes, which always tell stories, the observing eye is very close to the action: With the punks as well as with the skaters or demonstrators. In his studio, these external phenomena are transformed into powerful and energetic painterly compositions. Even in the quieter depictions of nature, Heisig's handling of the color palette and his characteristic, expressive style are fascinating.
In the Weltgefühl exhibition, new paintings and works on paper are presented alongside works from the last 25 years of artistic creation. Parallel to the exhibition at DIE GALERIE, a cooperative exhibition will take place at Galerie Brusberg, Berlin.
