Helene Appel Among Tress (Bilingual edition): Among Trees, Among Sand Grains (Languages: English and German) - Hardcover
Synopsis
In her painting, Helene Appel reflects the things of everyday life with high precision. Whether it is a piece of meat, lettuce leaves, fishing nets, twigs, plastic bags or puddles, Appel presents her cropped subjects in plan view, on untreated canvas in a realistic scale. If one takes a closer look, though, this attitude reveals its radical nature. Detaching herself completely from the tradition of still life, Appel does not strive to develop a painterly signature, does not emphasize her distinctive ductus. Instead, she carefully seeks an adequate mode of expression for each of her pictorial objects, thus emphasizing their particular physical presence. Despite the realistic representation, Appel's works evoke a sense of a high degree of abstraction. The impression is that of a distanced look that creates a tension between the familiar and the unaccustomed questioning the relationship we have to our environment.

Helene Appel: Among Trees, Among Sand Grains (Zeitgenössische Kunst)
Seller: artbook-service, Berlin, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -In ihrer Malerei reflektiert Helene Appel in hoher Präzision Dinge des täglichen Lebens. Appel präsentiert sie in der Draufsicht, freigestellt auf unbehandelter Leinwand im originalgetreuen Maßstab. Schaut man sich die Werke genauer an, wird die Radikalität dieser Haltung deutlich. Sich völlig von der Tradition des Stilllebens lösend, entwickelt Appel keine malerische Handschrift, betont nicht ihren unverwechselbaren Duktus. Stattdessen sucht sie in großer Konzentration für jeden ihrer Bildgegenstände eine adäquate Ausdrucksweise und stellt so ihre Eigenständigkeit heraus. Trotz der wirklichkeitsgetreuen Repräsentation sind Appels Werke geprägt von einem hohen Grad der Abstraktion. Es entsteht der Eindruck eines distanzierten Blicks, eine Spannung zwischen Vertrautem und Unverwandtem, die die Betrachtenden mit der Frage zurücklässt, in welchem Verhältnis wir zu unserer Umwelt stehen.HELENE APPEL (\*1976, Karlsruhe) hat in Hamburg an der Hochschule für bildende Künste und am Londoner Royal College of Art studiert. 2011 erhielt sie das Goslarer Kaiserringstipendium, 2019 das zweijährige Dorothea-Erxleben Stipendium an der Hochschule für Bildende Künste Braunschweig. Sie lebt und arbeitet in Berlin. 128 pp. Deutsch, Englisch. Seller Inventory # 15003081
