IVAR KAASIK - Abstract Painting "BEFORE THE SILENCE"
Two paintings by Ivar Kaasik, oil on canvas, each 150 x 170cm
"Die Ausstellung "Vor der Stille" zeigt Kaasiks neueste Arbeiten, die bislang radikalsten Abstraktionen innerhalb seines Oeuvres. In den meist großformatigen Ölgemälden verwischen die Vorstellungen von Künstlichem und Natürlichem. Sie wirken wie eine Hommage an Künstler, wie Joseph Albers und Marc Rothko, oder an das phänomenologische Licht in den eindrucksvollen Werken von James Turrell.
The upcoming exhibition of "art place berlin" shows Kaasiks latest works, the most radical abstractions within his oeuvre so far. In mostly large-scale oil paintings the notions of the artificial and the natural are blurring. They seem like a tribute to artists such as Joseph Albers and Mark Rothko, or the phenomenological light in the impressive works by James Turrell." - Harald Hofbauer
