About Nikolaus von der Assen
The German painter Nikolaus von der Assen devotes himself with great passion to atmospheric landscape painting. His concern is to express the fascination that nature has on him in his oil paintings. He regularly travels in search of motifs, such as fields, coasts or beaches. Whenever possible, he paints in the open air. This allows him to incorporate impressions of wind, warmth, cold or the strong colours of the landscape directly onto the canvas. His great closeness to nature is clearly evident in his paintings.
Nikolaus von der Assen was born in 1955 and studied at the Freie Kunstakademie Rhein/Ruhr. Today he works as a freelance painter.
A one-of-a-kind or unique piece is a work of art personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolour, drawing, lost-wax sculpture etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there are also the so-called "serial unique pieces". They present a series of works with the same colour, motif and technique, manually prepared by the same artist. The serial unique pieces are rooted in "serial art", a genre of modern art that aims to create an aesthetic effect through series, repetitions, and variations of the same objects or themes or a system of constant and variable elements or principles.
The historical starting point is considered to be Claude Monet's "Les Meules" (1890/1891), where, for the first time, a series was created that went beyond a mere group of works. The other artists, who addressed to the serial art, include Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian and above all Gerhard Richter.
