Artist: Neo Rauch

Commentary:Neo Rauch for me is in imposing figure in the art world. He walks the fine line between old and new. He is irrefutably German in subject matter. His paintings appear to alway shave a political agenda. His characters originate from desolate tortured scenes. Soldiers from WWI and WWII allied and axis dominate his works. Maidens can be seen engaged in various forms of work. Paint tubes grotesquely large occupy many of the works spilling their colored fluid across the canvas. His color choices are often muted, and dulled browns accented with glints of green, blue, red and yellow. His works are entirely realistic stylized and figurative with an emphasis on narrative painting. Particular attention is paid to motion in the works as well as shadowing and location of light sources.
Neo Rauch is a modern master. if I could afford his works they would hang in every room of my house.
