Press Release

Gallery70 is proud to present a solo show by the German artist Tobias Kielinger. This is its first Online Exclusive exhibition on ARTSY partner space.
Kielinger states the following about his own artworks: "You wouldn't believe it, my abstract, informal way of painting, has its origin in landscape painting. I am interested in creating "spaces" that invite the viewer ideally to linger around for a while."
As an expressive-abstract painting artist, the aspect of time is important to him. Hence, music is an important factor influencing his work. Kielinger refers to Richard Wagner's Parsifal - "You see, my son, time becomes space here". In accordance with Wagner Kielinger wants to illustrate the act of creation itself and spatially visualize the artistic decisions making as some kind of timeline perceived through the painting.
This is being achieved by means of painting techniques - almost analogous to compositional procedures of Gustav Mahler. Specifically through alienation effects, for example through a rough painting style, which does not conceal the brush, or by overpainting, which is an alternative action that makes the decision vividly visible. Accordingly, in the best case, the viewers perceive themselves as acting subjects in the pieces time-space.
