In his first exhibition with Deweer Gallery and his first in Belgium, German artist Thomas Kratz (1972) , who works with and in a wide variety of media, amongst which painting and performance, presents mainly abstract paintings.

Kratz realizes his paintings on canvas, on chipboard or on glass. On these materials that serve as a base, or to put it in the words of the artist himself, that serve as a resistance, he paints with soft brush strokes, always flat and never in impasto. Surface and depth merge. There are no more opposites.

The exhibition will be completed with some aluminium cast ‘paintings’, two sculptures and a wall painting.

It may be clear, this is to be a subtly composed and balanced exhibition that perfectly matches the space for which it has been conceived.

A first introduction of a few works by Thomas Kratz at the past Art Brussels definitely was a promising success!
