Konstantin Rosenkranz

The works of Konstantin Rosenkranz reflect an expression of transcendence created by color and its effect on the canvas. Associations to colored lights in a room or to digital worlds are evoked.
For this purpose, the painter treats the color in such a way that it can act on its own and penetrate the observer. He leaves the colors as autonomous as possible, applies them to the canvas and allows them to form into mixtures that are irreversible in the process.
This technique creates different shapes that combine to create a sensitive impression. The process and behavior of the material play a central role.
The unpainted, only primed parts of the canvas convey the infinite and a generous being. The relationship between painted pictorial space and canvas is usually in an aesthetically harmonious relationship to each other. The colors look strong and smooth due to the highly pigmented acrylic lacquers. They enhance the contrast with the matt, white canvas. This modern technique of painting challenges the viewer to find his own association with the works.
