Author Description

Friedrich Einhoff?s works on canvas and paper captivate with their delicate, multilayered surface processing, with coal and sand admixed. They give the impression of being a tactile membrane, which develops a corporeal quality in works with earthy beige and gray tones and a physical effect of depth in those with green and black tones, and directly speak to viewers on a sensory-emotional level. Body fragments and varnishes are in the process of dissolving and, in their opacity, narrate a questionable state of being of figure and elements. On the occasion of the artist?s eightieth birthday, the catalogue presents an in-depth look at his work of the past four years. Exhibition: LEVY Galerie, Hamburg, Germany (13.09. - 26.10.2016).
