Black River Dark Fighters. Artist's paintings oscillate between abstraction and figuration, walking a thin line and balancing on the razor's edge on the golden path to painting. He not only paints pictures of mountains, wetlands, forests, and meadows, but also airy, abstract compositions with luminous colors. When Herbert Brandl brings nature's atmospheric qualities into his pictures, painting and nature touch in moments of light, movement, perpetuating energy, and time. Even in his most abstract compositions we imagine the sun breaking through the clouds, streams flowing, or leaves and meadows showing off their green. Brandl's pictures are located at that point where the idea of a natural object and the emotionality of color fields become one. He works with the physical conditions of color, and he paints "unintentional," fresh pictures. His painting method is brisk, intuitive, and devoid of purposeful notions. He "concentrates like a Zen painter" (H. Brandl). Opening: 23 January 2014, 7 pm.
