SIEGFRIED ANZINGER

Works 2011

Mythic, dreamlike, erotic. For almost 40 years, the paintings of influential German-based artist Siegfried Anzinger have transported the viewer to a transparent world of wonder. Featured in this beautiful new museum catalog are 40 recent works that combine animal and human imagery in lightening-quick gestures. “It is as if one were actually dreaming the painting. Anzinger has carefully painted around the casually sketched motif—very sensitively so that one can see how the painter has been guided by the wavering and wobbling of the brush as though it were a dousing rod. And that is precisely what we experience in his paintings: they allow us to dream,” writes Rudi Fuchs in his accompanying text.
