Jahn und Jahn is delighted to present “artificial ghosts„ the first solo exhibition of Georg Fuchssteiner in Portugal, featuring a selection of his recent watercolors and paintings. Fuchssteiner is known for his blurring pictorial structures that reconcile elements from painting and drawing. He employs color shades that seem to whisper, while his forms and textures oscillate between appearance and disappearance. Fuchssteiner succeeds in shaping artistic equivalents of silent and speechless entities, generating specific aesthetic beings of their own intimate nature and original simplicity. With delicate force, the artist develops a finely differentiated chromatic variety of a highly contemplative and sensual character. The organizing principles of natural manifestations and of human existence are reflected in Fuchssteiner’s works. However, the artist does not seem particularly interested in depicting the world but, rather, in evoking the viewer’s inner capacity to detach from reality and awaken individual receptiveness to a different gaze.
