About Andreas Bausch
Andreas Bausch (born in 1966) literally opens up new horizons in his paintings. Anyone who might now think of classic sunsets is mistaken. Because in his work, he is not concerned with the most realistic possible reproduction of impressions of nature but rather with ways of perceiving the horizon and with new, surprising approaches to its representation.
From what Bausch shows us on the canvas, we believe we can sometimes recognise a sky, and at other times an ocean. Ultimately, however, he remains in the realm of abstraction with his structures applied with brushes and partly with rollers.
Andreas Bausch was born in Wiesbaden, Germany, in 1966 and currently has his studio in the cathedral city of Cologne. At the University of Applied Sciences for Art and Design in Cologne, he also studied painting and film, among other things as a master-class student with Professor Karl Marx.
Bausch's work has already received several awards and scholarships. In 2018, he received the Rhine Art Prize. Since 1989, his works have been shown at numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout Germany.
Term for paintings and sculptures that are detached from the representational depiction, which spread throughout the entire western 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 that has been personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolours, drawing, etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there exist 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 type 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.
In the history of arts, the starting point of this trend was the work "Les Meules" (1890/1891) by Claude Monet, in which 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.
