Lenz Geerk creates psychologically charged paintings that are removed from any specific time or place. Emphasizing his subjects in such a way as to draw out the hidden emotions of the human psyche, Geerk depicts people at the threshold of excitation and in the throes of exploration. With postures and gestures a fiction of representation, Geerk imagines how a certain fragile moment, derived from neither model nor photograph, can instead be expressed through atmosphere and body language. The nearly monochromatic palettes, only occasionally warmed by other colors, adds to the aura of emotional tension.
Lenz Geerk出生于瑞士,目前生活工作于德国杜塞尔多夫。他的作品有一种深沉的厚实感,也令人产生一丝不安。充满棱角的线条和变幻莫测的气氛充斥在他的作品之中,既有一种惊奇感,也使观者察觉到一丝隐秘的绝望。
Lenz Geerk的画作有一张张扬的朴素,他画中的人物周围是垂死的花朵或桌角尖锐的边缘,这些都构成了神圣而不可思议的瞬间。他的作品有着明显的德国表现主义画家的感觉,无论是基希纳还是施利希特,都能看到他们对Geerk深刻的影响。他的画作即是他对逝去的世俗的一种庆祝,人物眼中一种不祥的目光取代了微笑,这种特征使人难忘。他试图营造出一种永恒的感觉,就像每个人都被拥抱在一个虚无的世界之中。
Geerk在每幅作品中都创造出了一种紧张的对立,无论是在造型、构图还是色彩的选择上,他使用的特殊的在羊毛上的丙烯酸也反映出具有敏感度的张力,因为这种材料的模糊性和可变化性都尤为显著。他的作品也容易令人联想到巴尔蒂斯的作品,不同的是,Geerk将单个人物作为画面的中心,并使其处于犹豫不决或无法自我反省的时刻,仿佛他们生命的气息已经很微弱,并与世界断开了连接。比如在作品《表像V》中,人物的脸被半遮,眼睛紧闭,头以奇怪又令人不安的角度扭曲到了她的身体之中,似乎是出于某种原因而被“摆放”在一种意愿之下。她所坐的桌子似乎也处于失重状态,令这幅画使人产生强烈共鸣的是橙色的线条,沿着女人的手臂进一步将其与背景融合。
Geerk的作品与艺术家Vija Celmins的作品紧密相关,Vija Celmins最著名的是她的写实及描绘自然环境的绘画。与Celmins一样,Geerk的主题不仅是真实世界的替代物,还呈现生命内在的一种自我审视和反省,更深层次的是,人类可能性的种种隐喻经验,在现实和幻想中都有差距。这些作品无比挑战了我们对现实构成的认知,扩大某些定义或将传统观念彻底粉碎。我们在宇宙中似乎毫不重要,只是将我们带入到狂喜瞬间或绝望边缘的力量在我们毫不知情的情况下像魔术一般,继续作用于我们。
