Adrian Buschmann: Born in Kattowitz, Poland. Lives and works in Berlin, Vienna and Vallebona.
Education: Studies painting at the Art Academy (UDK), Berlin at Prof. Leiko Ikemura and Daniel Richter.
Buschmann creates paintings that alternate between abstraction and representation while conflating styles from different eras with ironic comments on the contemporary art scene. A continuous, up-to-date and joyful challenge which exiles the artist in his solitary and inner search.In 2013, he won the Strabag Artaward International.
Adrian Buschmann describes his images as emotional painting, by which he refers primarily to
his visual themes and motifs. The subjective, emotional aspect of his work, which is attended by
something irrational and subconscious, is contrasted by the extremely precise composition of
what is depicted. The reduction bordering on denial produces an unusual awareness of what has
not been painted. Ephemerality and a feeling of extreme decisiveness lie side by side. Lightness
oscillates with sharpness to generate an underlying duality. The artist pursues the concept that
ideas are not self-contained, completed forms. According to Buschmann, ideas are based less on
the idea of creativity than on a procedural structure.
Or, as Francis Bacon said in conversation with David Sylvester (Munich 1982): “I attempted to depict
a bird […] but suddenly the lines I had drawn suggested something quite different, and the image
arose from this suggestion. I never intended to make the picture this way, I never imagined it in
this way.” Henriette van der Werff, Berlin, 2012
