From January 20 to 27, 2024, we are showing an exhibition of works by Emil Sorge entitled "Resonance".
The exhibition will open on Friday, January 19 at 7 pm in the presence of the artist in the Galerie Am Elisengarten.
On this occasion, the artist will present his new book.
Born in Stolberg/Rhineland in 1957, Sorge studied at the Düsseldorf Art Academy as a master student of Professor Rissa after training as an advertising painter and has been working as a freelance artist since 1979.
His current works are based on photographs of often urban, technical spaces and places. Sorge finds these intuitively in analogue media, the Internet or his private archive.
Roof and industrial landscapes, wooden beams but also forest images are gradually reduced to their individually perceived structures, which are worked out using painterly and sculptural means.
In this way, different dimensional and mirrored variations of a theme are created: from small-format gouache to wood relief to printed canvas.
Opening hours during the exhibition:
Tuesday to Friday 10 am - 6 pm
Saturday 10 am - 4 pm
Vernissage: Friday, January 19, 2024 at 7 pm
