Artists

In her works, the artist Agnes Lang embarks on an emotional journey whose outcome she often leaves unanswered. For her, colours and shapes are a brilliant way to give unrestricted space and freedom to the inner image. Sometimes she retreats into the silence of muted colours, sometimes she seeks the energy of contrasts. Her works are thus sometimes loud and sometimes quiet, like the artist herself.

The self-taught artist Annette Schmucker, who lives in Aulendorf near Ravensburg, was already enthusiastic about painting in her childhood. For 15 years now, she has been able to intensify her artistic work and make it the focus of her work. Annette likes to work with both concrete and abstract motifs, which she also combines impressively. Despite the diversity of her subject matter, a common feature of her work is the depiction of light, expanse and transparency.

Man or animal, not a contradiction, but one and the same need: to portray. The portrait of the human face, as well as the animal portrait, an exploration of the individual.
The artist Brandys' intention is to go beyond the real world, beyond representationalism, to create her own abstract self-view, which she layers with great force and enormous momentum expressive colour fields. This leads to an unusual visual experience for the viewer.

Conny Niehoff, born in 1968 in Wolmirstedt, has been working as a freelance artist since 2002. She lives and works in her studio in Colbitz near Magdeburg. Since 2013, she has been giving painting courses in the Munich area through the Akademie Wildkogel and organising weekend workshops in her own studio in Colbitz. The knowledge of transience, visions of the world, everyday life and sensitivity for what surrounds us are the themes of Conny Niehoff's paintings. Themes which she develops layer by layer into motifs on canvas.

Since Edelgard Wittkowski successfully completed her painting studies at the Novalis-Hochschulverein, the artist has been working freelance in her studio near Düsseldorf. In her work, the artist pays special attention to contemporary, informal painting. In doing so, she brings together the expressive strengths of colour to create intense compositions, so that lines and surfaces emerge from it and are brought together in a balanced, harmonious arrangement.

The trained painter Elena Drobychevskaja and studied animator has a special relationship to horses. She is fascinated by the dynamics and elegance of the animals. But not only horses, also bulls or the depiction of people or portraits in a meditative reference, find special attention in her paintings. Elena knows how to capture the flowing aesthetics and the power of the motifs in her paintings, which always spring from her imagination without a model.

Etienne Donnay is a persistent and unwavering contemporary artist who does not want to be pinned down stylistically. He visualises his impressions in free, expressionist interpretations, whereby his path also leads to Pop Art. In this way, he inspires with avant-garde works that find buyers all over Europe. His works show that he basically prefers a strong and luminous palette. Etienne justifies this with the fact that colours can have a great influence on people's moods, which he wants the viewer to feel incessantly.

The artist, born in 1971, became enthusiastic about painting at an early age. She deepened her passion during her studies at the University of Fine Arts and experimented in various directions during this time. In addition to landscapes and still lifes, she increasingly created abstract portraits. The first requests for commissions inevitably followed. Her works are created in oil on high-quality painting ground and with exclusively high-quality painting materials, Berger works with an unbelievable amount of feeling and without strict techniques, her art is created "...always inspired by the moment".
