Abstract Art is Art that
confronts you.
It is not an invitation to peruse a story in the usual way,
but more likely a journey that requires a different kind of steps to be taken. It
won’t allow you to write the end of a narrative which started some time ago, in
the artist studio. Abstract Art challenges you. A sort of – I am here, right in front of you, I dare you
to find a language!

(bruchstücke, eng.– fragments, broken pieces, debris)
Two distinct entities – the Art
and the Viewer – between which the only possible coherence is the one established
in other terms than the common ones.
The chance of finding your
way to this possible coherence is entirely up to your intellectual and esthetic
luggage. It is also up to a certain kind of sensitivity, because most of people
usually vibrate to meaning – that immediate significance regularly approved by
everybody. The “1+1=2” kind of meaning.
The challenge in the case of
Abstract Art is to reach that mathematical point where you are allowed to see a
deeper sense and a more consistent beauty outside the frame of a content filled
with meaning.
