About Christine Liebich
Christine Liebich studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich and is a master student of Professor Axel Kasseböhmer. The artist grew up on a farm and has been experimenting with materials such as steel and concrete since she was a child.
In this way, she developed strong manual skills at an early age, which are also evident in her current sculptural works. In the “Dark Knight” cycle of works, Liebich seems to be literally painting with steel without revealing the manufacturing process of the seemingly light objects.
The artist lives and works near Ulm.
Contemporary art created from objects that are not normally considered materials from which art is made.
Object art was a means of expression of Cubism, Dadaism and Surrealism, and over time, it has developed various representational techniques up to the present day.
A plastic work of sculptural art made of wood, stone, ivory, bronze or other metals.
While sculptures made of wood, ivory, or stone are carved directly from the material block, in bronze casting, a working model is prepared at first. Usually, it is made of clay or other easily mouldable materials.
The prime time of sculpture after the Greek and Roman antiquity was the Renaissance. Impressionism gave a new impulse to the sculptural arts. Contemporary artists such as Jorg Immendorf, Andora, and Markus Lupertz also enriched sculptures with outstanding works.
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.
