About Andreas Lutherer
The works of the artist Andreas Lutherer, born in Mönchengladbach, Germany, in 1962, are characterised by a symbiotic interaction between humankind and their environment.
In his photo prints, he processes only one motif at a time, which he dissolves to infinity in colour and structure. The viewer is encouraged to decipher the molecules of the pictorial language and to reassemble the motif into something familiar. In this way, everyone creates their own picture.
In 2010, he undertook a paradigm shift. His œuvre became more representational. The new works amaze with astonishing effects. Nature inspires Andreas Lutherer to create fascinating works. Several glass layers create the shadow effect of his detailed motifs, which the artist skilfully joins together in his unique technique, thus creating a depth whose effect is simply impossible to resist.
Today, Lutherer is renowned and has realised numerous commissioned works for large companies and regularly exhibits at home and abroad.
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.
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.
