About Stefan Dobritz
Stefan Dobritz is fascinated by the landscape of northern Germany with its bright yellow canola fields, the rugged coastline with its foamy waves and the illuminated harbour views.
Born in Lübeck, Germany, in 1965, the artist was profoundly influenced and inspired by his encounter with the painter Jürgen Runge (1929-92). As a plein air painter, he usually creates his works on-site, working exclusively with the palette knife. This painting technique allows him to work impulsively as well as to elaborate details conscientiously.
With the depiction of the charming effects of light and shadow, the well-proportioned picture details as well as his search for complementary intensive colour compositions, Dobritz impressively works out the "beauty of the special moment" which is inherent in every motif. With his sometimes reduced and striking, but always calm visual language, the artist succeeds in focussing the viewer's thoughts on moods and their romantic worlds of experience.
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.
