Description

Rütjer RÜHLE Los Canteras, 1989-1990 Oil on canvas, sand and earth Annotated on the back "Los Canteras" 1989, Vincennes 1990 N: 90/7 Height: 200 cm; Width: 328 cm Born in 1939 in Danzig, Poland. Naturalized French in 1987. From 1995 to 1963, he was a pupil of Christian Klaiber, himself a pupil of Matisse and Léger in Paris. At the same time, he studied history, philosophy and art history at the University of Erlangen - Nuremberg. From 1963 to 1966, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in West Berlin. From 1966 to 1969, he lived in the Bay of Alpujarra in Andalusia. During this stay, he broke with traditional painting techniques and materials. He used his fingers to spread the color and a variety of materials: doors, shutters, fragments of wood and, more recently, slabs of marble and tree trunks cut wide. The material of his works is scratched, stirred into swirls of color, punctuated by contrary movements, giving rise to landscapes, or at least a feeling of nature, in large formats. This work is number 7. Begun in Spain in 1989, it was completed in the Vincennes studio in 1990. Despite its number, it does not belong to a series. Each painting is unique. This painting is linked to the cosmic theme of alternating Day and Night (see Tag und Nacht catalog, Erlangen 1991). According to Rühle, this painting is imbued with southern light.
