Susanne Zuehlke is one of the most important positions in contemporary abstract <\/b>painting in southern Germany. For many years she has been developing an independent pictorial language in which color<\/b>, light <\/b>and space <\/b>enter into a floating balance <\/b>. Her works are created using the traditional technique of egg tempera – a sophisticated layered painting technique that enables transparency, depth and subtle light effects. The slow build-up of numerous layers of paint gives her paintings a special depth and an almost breathing luminosity<\/b>. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

The artist studied painting at the Akademie der Bildenden K\u00fcnste Karlsruhe under Professors Harry K\u00f6gler and Helmut Dorner. She was awarded a scholarship to the University of Arizona in Tucson, USA, at an early stage. International experiences <\/b>– including participation in the Luxor International Painting Symposium in Egypt – have shaped her artistic approach to this day and expanded her view of color, light and architectural space. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Zuehlke’s works move between constructive abstraction <\/b>and poetic openness<\/b>. Rectangles, areas of color and rhythmic structures seem to shift in the pictorial space, to float or dissolve in the light. This creates a subtle tension between order and freedom, clarity and atmosphere. Her compositions appear both concentrated and open – reduced in form but rich in painterly nuance. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t

Her work focuses less on the expressive gestural and more on the quiet effect <\/b>of color and light. The pictures unfold slowly in the viewer’s gaze and open up spaces of concentration and perception. It is precisely this calm and precision that lends her works a special timeless quality.<\/b> <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Her works have been presented in numerous renowned galleries and exhibitions – including at ART Karlsruhe, Kunsthalle Dresden, Museum W\u00fcrth and international exhibitions. Susanne Zuehlke’s works can also be found in private and public collections. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
