weekend session
Last weekend was very productive. I am very satisfied with some of the works and would therefore like to present them.
As before, the basis for my considerations are principles from Chinese calligraphy and painting.
Some works have a funny or provocative approach, like this sheet. The Chinese text reads in English: “If you are looking for a deeper meaning in this painting, you are looking in the wrong place.” (如果 您 在 此 图片 中 寻找 更 深层 的 含义 ， 那么 您 在 寻找 错误 的 位置).
The best work for me recently is this sheet. Powerful in expression, sensitive in color, exciting construction – at least that’s how I see it myself 🙂
Some of my works can be found at https://www.saatchiart.com/zettl Not sure if it is the right place to offer them though.
More of this kind can be seen at: gestural abstraction

The intersection of tradition with abstraction is fascinating.

Thank you very much! The older I get, the more I think that our traditional roots are particularly important.

I really like this, ““If you are looking for a deeper meaning in this painting, you are looking in the wrong place.” (如果 您 在 此 图片 中 寻找 更 深层 的 含义 ， 那么 您 在 寻找 错误 的 位置).” If it weren’t so many words, I might have it as a tattoo… I like the painting that accompanies it. It’s perfect.

There is one more thing I forgot to mention: I used this typewritten-like characters so the statement looks more official 🙂

AT SUNNYSIDE – WHERE TRUTH AND BEAUTY MEET
I agree with all the others here — lovely work. Exuberant and witty, too. 🙂
