Matthias Weischer Untitled 11 2003 Oil on canvas. 59 x 118 in. (149.9 x 299.7 cm). Signed and dated "M. Weischer 2003" on the reverse.
Provenance Wilkinson Gallery, London Exhibited London, Wilkinson Gallery, Matthias Weischer October 15 – November 30, 2003 Catalogue Essay Matthias Weischer paints in a unique style, successfully blurring the line between representation and abstraction. By incorporating an architectural foundation to his paintings, they instantly take on a defining structure and composition. It is within this composition that Weischer constructs his own visual language. Each canvas seems to occupy an imagined space, yet the mysterious locations are oddly familiar to most viewers, as if they were sourced from a place in our shared consciousness. The artist’s use of basic geometric shapes, flat and two dimensional, is a constant in Weischer’s paintings; he alludes to an object being present, but does not necessarily define it. This is one way in which the artist helps craft a sense of place that is perceived rather than literal. There is a palpable sense of emotion within each painting, one that is intensified by the absence of figures or visual clues and we as viewers are left struggling to construct our own narrative.
