The Atticus art gallery presents an exhibition of abstract works by Monika Schröder, an artist who created her unique style at the intersection of painting, sculpture, and printmaking. The exhibition is dedicated to studying Schröder’s unique technique based on the interaction of materials and conditions.
Monika Schröder explores painting as a relationship between an idea and its final result, as an alchemical connection between elements and the impossibility of completely controlling them. This is the reason for the technique of creating works: printing on canvas using pre-prepared materials with different properties.
Early works have predominant grey and earthy hues. Later, impacted by Schröder’s trip to Portugal, they are replaced by canvases in which colour is the main character. But they all represent the consistent development of technology, the unique alchemical mystery of Monika Schröder.
