Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Klaus R. Uhlig, born in 1932 in Altenburg near Leipzig, is primarily recognized as a painter of people. His upright figures, often grouped, symbolize the emerging XXL generation. Through his 'Structurels', Uhlig merges classical realism with modern abstraction, creating composite images open to diverse interpretations. This publication, featuring insights from Gil E. Stein, highlights works like Das letzte Blatt der Welt and 9-11, painted in 2001, along with the 'Arborel' series. A defining characteristic of Uhlig’s art is its positive impact, rooted in a clear philosophy: to illustrate the beauty and mystery of life and social connections. He employs various graphic and painting techniques, including decalomania, with a color palette influenced by Bauhaus theory. His artistic development stems from a classical education in art and architecture, including experiences as a stonemason and studies under notable figures like Otto Herbig and Le Corbusier. After teaching at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste in Hamburg, Uhlig worked as a town planner, creating zoning maps for cities like Göttingen and Cologne, where he served as Stadtbaudirektor. Now a freelance artist in Cologne, his work has been showcased in solo exhibitions across Europe and China, and is held in state museums, public buildings, and private collections.
