Colour Power | Veit von Seckendorff

The paper collage ›Color Power‹ presents a three-dimensional space consisting of uniformly large squares that give the work a structured and geometric appearance. The light seems to come in from the left side and creates interesting shades. Inside the work, further squares rise up in different colors, creating an attractive contrast to the darker shades. The harmonious fusion of light and color creates a dynamic tension.

The keen viewer may be reminded of phenomena associated with works of Op Art. Veit von Seckendorff's masterful composition creates a fascinating interaction between form and color. The apparent depth of the work creates a visual play of light and shadow in the space, inviting viewers to explore it.

The Lachenmann Art Gallery is delighted to present the works of the renowned artist Veit von Seckendorff, who was born in Munich in 1937 and is a member of the Taunus Artists' Association. Von Seckendorff is a master of the "School of Seeing", whose declared aim is to promote "learning to see better". His works of art are convincing lessons from this special school, which tries to awaken a deep interest in seeing and the gaze through every line and movement on the canvas. Without challenging deeper questions of content, these works invite you to experience the subtle movements of seeing. Inspired by abstracted organic formations, von Seckendorff goes his own, new way and emancipates himself from great role models such as Hans Arp. We invite you on a visual journey that puts seeing at the center.
