TREES / RE-PAINTING CLASS
STUDIO MANOR GRUNEWALD PRESS 24 / 2024
Edition of 100: signed and numbered
48 pages / Xerox b&w / offset cover / 18x26cm
The document contains a selection out of a large studio archive of photocopied reproductions of paintings.
The archive is a study on a classical theme within landscape painting - ‘trees’
For my own practice this plays a role to understand different approaches of this theme.
All source material was copied from collected books, catalogs, curiosa.
art historical references, hobbyist paining manuals and contemporary art is brought together in a document.
The booklet is a visual dialogue between those images and only study on form itself.
Focus on the act of painting and connecting loose ends.
Getting rid of rigid boundaries of value and taste.
Embrace freedom and find meaning in chaos.
