„It was at an exhibition of original oil paintings at the Pulheim-based K. Wehr gallery where artist Lutz Muenzfeld established himself as one of the most outstanding neo-impressionists of contemporary times.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Lutz M\u00fcnzfeld excels like no other painter when it comes to capturing the nuances of light and atmosphere with oils. Consistently, and with precision in study and detail, his painting represents a continuation of the painting of landscapes and scenery achieved by Claude Monet. He has perfected the essence of Impressionism, the ability to capture an exact moment with a realism of almost photographic precision.“<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

About his art<\/h4>

\n\t\t\t

The particular essence of the work of Lutz M\u00fcnzfeld lies in how he treats and represents light. Running through his work are themes and motifs that capture passing moments of the day or the year, sometimes depicting the same place or location. What this achieves is a direct sense in the paintings of pure „impression“ as encapsulated by the Impressionist school of painters. To represent necessary depths of colour, he found inspiration in studying Tibetan Buddhism, where the combination of elements of colour – reds, greens, yellows, blue and white depicting fire, water, earth, air and space – lent itself naturally for a style of painting centred on light and shade.<\/p>\n

Alongside components of space, such as distant landscapes, and a focus on capturing the present moment, such as in studies of windows and doors, his work also reproduces aspects of differing times of the day. It allows him to achieve a harmony encompassing time and space alongside nature and objects as they evolve with the changing effects of sunlight. It is this that makes the conception of a picture a personal act of creation.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Lutz M\u00fcnzfeld \"It was at an exhibition of original oil paintings at the Pulheim-based K.
