Gotthard Graubner: Painting

Text by Uwe Wieczorek, Heinz Liesbrock.

This publication celebrates the eightieth birthday of German painter Gotthard Graubner (born 1930), spanning his work from the 1950s to the present. Devoid of figuration or metaphoric allusions, the artist's Farbraumkörper or "color-space-bodies" evolve entirely out of evanescent color effects, somewhat in the vein of Rothko. Working on highly absorbent ground, Graubner maximizes the murkier tendencies of his pigments

FROM THE BOOK
"Graubner's painting develops entirely out of the organisation of colour. What he is concerned to do, is to work out the true qualities of colour in a consistent fashion. He does not understand colour simply as a means, as the tool with which to implement a variety of painterly ideas, it is in fact the core of the picture as he conceives it. His aim in this is to explore colour, and to go on exploring it until he arrives at the principles that are inherent in it. He addresses colour as the peculiar, the factually irreplaceable element in the process of picture-making. What his pictures stress from constantly new perspectives is the richness of colour, the infinite variety which defies all attempts to pin it down to one concept."

Heinz Liesbrock, excerpted from Embodying Colour in "Gotthard Graubner: Painting.
