About Nicole Leidenfrost
The works of freelance artist Nicole Leidenfrost, born in Berlin in 1974 and now living in Thuringia, are characterised by their strong drawing lines, expressive brushstrokes, and bold colours.
In 2015, the artist received a special honour: German President Gauck gifted her work "The Horse in Royalblue" to Queen Elizabeth II during her visit to Germany. The painting is now part of the "Royal Collection Trust" art collection and has its home in Buckingham Palace.
In 2020, Nicole Leidenfrost graduated with a diploma from the "Drawing and Painting" course with Prof. Markus Lüpertz at the Academy of Fine Arts at the Alte Spinnerei Kolbermoor. The artist successfully passed the master class with Lüpertz in 2022.
Term for paintings and sculptures that are detached from representational depiction, which spread across the entire western world and parts of the eastern world from around 1910 onwards in ever new stylistic variations. The Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, born in 1866, is considered the founder of abstract art. Other important artists of abstract art are K.S. Malewitsch, Piet Mondrian, and others.
Graphic artwork in the making of which the artist combines at least two graphic production techniques.
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.
