We are pleased to present an exhibition of new paintings by Emanuel Seitz, marking his fifth solo show with the gallery. Emanuel Seitz gives focal emphasis to the basic elements of painting, to form and composition. Although many of his paintings seem simple and monochromatic in their vocabulary, they are not Color Field paintings, in his opinion. He sees them more like studies of the synergy between form and spatiality. The artist mixes his pigments to broaden the spectrum of hues at his disposal for bringing out the essence of form with maximal intensity.
Emanuel Seitz b. 1973, lives and works in Munich, Germany. He was educated at the Akademie der Bildenden Künste in Munich under Günther Förg. Seitz has exhibited in numerous solo and group exhibitions in Germany and elsewhere throughout Europe. He is represented in major collections including the Pérez Art Museum Miami; Kunstsammlung Deutsche Bundesbank, Frankfurt/Main; Städtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus, Munich and the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich.
In 2021 Emanuel Seitz will show in an institutional solo exhibition at the Oldenburger Kunstverein, DE.
