„This work is overwhelming.“
Jury review of Netherlands art competition PAINTING OF THE YEAR: „This work is overwhelming. At first
sight it seems to be total chaos. But looking longer you discover a vertical
structure in the whole that gives you a grip. This is certainly visible from
afar. The maker is clearly charmed by the primary colours. With here and there
just a different tone of blue-green. White is important in this work. Because this
colour is of an entirely different order. An almost heavenly order. It gives
little moments of escape, as if you are looking through the work.“
Original oil painting by Volker Mayr, inspired by music (jazz) as a real celebration of colours, forms and structures.
